Reviewing others' work? ;-) The things I write about are rather obvious mistakes, like: no main POI tag (amenity, shop, ...), free text in opening_hours, geometry errors and so on.

How about we make some tips/guidelines for communications with newcomers on the Wiki? People could share practices they find most effective.
