The nodes for most of the houses in the Pittsburgh Metro as well as the Pittsburgh City never existed. I can't randomly pick a city address and expect to find it on the map. Some major points of interest are represented. Once I get to the suburbs the suberbs finding houses that represent points of interest are a rarity and all come from geo names.

I guess I can start by making OpenStreetMap nodes for the locations in the geo names. Then I can figure out how to do web development I can put a website on one of my virtual private servers and organize a mapping party for the less notable house nodes.

I don't understand how Western Pennsylvania Hospital can have a symbol on the map but not have a node representing it at all, how does that happen?

What are presets for? Should I denote buildings with more than one node?

Can you check back in the history of changes in that area? Sounds like someone 
might have mis-moused and deleted a large area of nodes. It would be better to 
restore than to recreate.
