I believe it was Ian Dees who came up with http://onosm.org/ to address
this. It collects detailed information and then creates an actionable note
with that information.

As for useless notes, most of the ones I've seen and closed come from
Craigslist. They are the ones that start with "bounds:" and a URL which
used to show a box on the map to indicate the users viewport when they
created the note but now just shows the map centered on the note. Some of
them are complaining about how their listing isn't showing right on the
Craigslist website. The marginally useful ones are the ones that say "my
neighborhood is missing"
