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" Toby
