The iD logic is that you first draw a polygon, then mark what it is. So
what happens is new mappers see a nice little polygon on the map, and
forget they still have to mark it as a thing. As you have told iD already
that you want to map a polygon, it has already tagged it with "area=yes"

This is, in my opinion, the most underrated wisdom right now. Bad data

The problem is just the sheer volume. I suspect in Africa we are looking
at 10,000 or more. Some may well be old edits.

We've been nagging iD developers for months, if not years, about this now.
I thought it was resolved a few months back, but apparently not.
Why is it necessary to make it so complicated to draw a building that
doesn't get uploaded as area=yes in iD? Why not simply default to
building=yes or warn a
If you look at parts of Africa in particular there are too many to send out
individual emails. HOT doesn't even begin to validate more than half the
tiles that its mappers marked done never mind the ones have mapped on. So

I spend a fair amount of time validating in HOT. This means looking over
the work of other mappers. When a tile is marked done I check it and
provide feedback.
I'm seeing many many ways in the map which are untagged. Some are simply
