I would say that missing data is a form of error in OSM and I have used
notes to indicate such things before. The only problem with adding things
based only on notes is that we don't know the source or accuracy of the
information, especially from anonymous notes. We get a lot of notes from

Hi Alex,
Good question and I have since figured out how to access notes I have
touched/resolved to demonstrate my point. My treatment of notes is
probably the problem. :)
I see this note [1] as being a legitimate use case for them in that there
used to be a roundabout there and not the intersec
Hey Jason -
I'm not sure I follow as Foursquare's page says:
"If you just want something small fixed but don't have the time to sign up
and edit, it's easy to add a note."
Which seems to be in line with how you're using notes (reporting errors).
What am I missing?

Hi Team,
I've been doing some SuperUser edits in 4sq recently and poked my head into
the OSM page they hold on their site (https://foursquare.com/about/osm) and
its slightly at odds with the messaging I have been using when resolving
notes I have deemed as irrelevant to use and I thought I'd clari

The assumption "one household == one address" is only valid for half of
these 40 million; the other half lives in building types where several
households share one address.
Also, I don't share Johan's belief that all of

You'll have to add businesses and public administration and services etc. to

Yep. Germany is the largest: 40M. UK a little bit more than France, Italy a
bit lower. (25M)

200 millions addresses only in the EU ?
France has around 26 millions in the IGN database which would mean 1/8 of
all EU ?

Addresses will be a OSM major topic in France in the coming months.
It is one of the main topic we will discuss next week during SOTM-FR in
Paris.
We'e managed to build scripts to extract address data from the cadastre,
and conflates as far as possible with existing OSM data.
