1) A POI added without a main tag
http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/4295739963
I suspect that people are adding a "point" to a map (in this case for a shop),
and are not seeing "shop" in the default list to the left or understanding that
they can search. In my experience the search works really well, and once a
"point" has been added by mistake the "change feature" tooltip is pretty obvious
too - so I've no idea how to improve here!
Potlatch2 works nicely by drag and drop a selected POI onto the map. It's grid
does need a little updating, but on the whole is a better starting point.
I will be making a case for including that into id ... the current 'blank page'
when adding a point is not user friendly at all! It took me a while and a few
moves to get a POI node created in id ...
3) Deletions
http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/30174
I've no idea whether things are being deleted by clicking on the rubbish bin
icon or pressing the keyboard shortcut. According to comments on #osm-gb there
have been a couple of attempts to find out what buttons people are clicking, but
the answer is "I didn't mean to do X - I've no idea how it happened".
See other thread an why there should not be a delete button! I made the same
case on potlatch in the past and now the reasons are even greater.
