I generally leave the comment buildings done to avoid other building
mappers picking it up and scanning through. Sometimes when I see a tile
that looks as if all the buildings are done I'll scroll through with JOSM
crtldown arrow map any buildings not done then comment it buildings
done. Trouble
I'd like to second a point Julian made: please leave feedback notes for us
new mappers. In the first task I worked on, I found what I thought was
either a river or a path. I traced it and tagged it as a river, and left a
note saying, I'm not sure if this is a river or a path. I went back to
If it is small and you are uncertain if it is a building, then I would not
trace it as a building (particularly if there are no signs of occupation -
paths or enclosures and such). Even if it is a building, it's most likely a
hut and not significant to the relief effort (or other applications).
When you ask to validate objects like this, try to be more specific. The best
would be to give us the ID of one of these objects or to zoom in and give us
the osm url to point more precisely to this zone (Ctrl-J in JOSM).

Julian well described what we should do. To have small sections of paths a few
meter long in the fields is useless and add confusion to the map. But it is
important to try to complete paths from villages and assure they connect to the
highways. I understand that this is not always eaysy to
Also roads, tracks, paths, residential roads, and so on!
It's all different depending on the country, and in Nepal it's different in
rural areas from more citified areas.
Cheers!
Back to mapping.

Since I haven't mapped them I suspect the OSM Url would be of little value
but its https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/28.076797/84.383044 if it is
of interest. I looked at one very small square building that had been
mapped in the middle of a
