Yes - that's absolutely fine! Just wanted to clarify it here so that the wording could be altered (I'm quite happy to do this myself).

Like Martin, I would expect these to be completely acceptable to map. Not a native speaker, not a lawyer. I would describe such areas as public (possibly privately owned). I think the intention is to deter people from mapping _fully private_ gardens which can be viewed from public roads, is this correct? I am not sure about other, but for me it is about discouraging mapping fully private garden in detail. For example mapping garden area itself and trees (maybe even with their species), but micromapping area where someone planted strawberries seems something that is out of scope of OSM for privacy reasons.

There are some points I would like to comment on: - * OpenStreetMap is not a property registry, thus do not map individual ownership of buildings or plots. There is no need to split residential landuse into individual plots. (Compare Parcel<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Parcel>.) Yes, we do not map individual ownership of land and buildings generally, but unless the owner is a person, we could and privacy regulations would not prevent us from doing it. It also isn’t an argument for refraining from mapping property divisions, because these are interesting regardless of _who_ is the owner “some structure of a semi-public garden appear to be the borderline of being acceptable.“ IMHO exaggerated, semi-public objects can be mapped in all detail and aren’t borderline cases Well, at least according to my understanding of the term semi-public Cheers Martin
