Hi Khym,
Instead of deleting the point, why don't you include the point into the way you are creating? Just move the point to one of the corners then draw the rectangle with the point as one of the corners. Then transfer the tags from the point to the rectangle afterwards.

Hi Eugene,
Thanks for the suggestion.
Do I need to delete the tags of the original node after I transfer the tags to the new polygon? -
Comment from seav
Yes, please delete the tags. :)

Thanks.
There are instances that there are both polygons and nodes on a particular feature. But these polygons do not have the tags the points have. What do we need to do? Copy the tags from the point to the polygon and delete the point after? Or delete the polygon and draw a new one using the point as the initial node? Thanks for the help. -
Comment from seav
In that case (there is both a point and a polygon already existing), just copy the missing tags to the polygon if there are any and then delete the point.
But, personally, I would merge the node into one of the nodes of the polygon so that the creator of the node is still credited in the existing data. This can be done in JOSM by selecting the node, then a node in the polygon and then pressing 'M' (for 'merge').
