Good morning, this is another changeset with really poor quality edits. natural=grassland on a lawn and house, natural=lake where there is no lake, resedential areas that do not accurately capture the entire area, building footprint that hasn't been digitized over the proper area. natural=scrub on a private vehicle yard.
I'm seeing similar issues on some of your other changes.
Your OSM login is new, and a lot of these changesets are modifying/adding landuse areas, so I'm going to be straightforward with you: Are you a pokemon GO player? -

Hello,
I am a Go player, but I've tried not to deface the map. I may have made mistakes but I promise they weren't malicious or me trying to change the map to make the game more advantageous.
The pond I added is there. It's treed over so it's not visible from the aerial view but I know it's location. The large co-op building i added has been built since the last satelite images were taken. Its a large shopping center with two stories of apatments on top. Is there a way to attach a photo to my change log?
Also I selected scrub land because I didn't see landuse=sand-pit or something similar. The grassland I set on a large field of grass. Is there a meadow option? Or should I not be tagging such small features?
I've got some time today so I'll go over some of my edits and see if there are more accurate ways to tag things. Pokemon Go lead me to this project but I actually think it's really cool and I'm not trying to edit it to advantage in any way. I just hope to make my home town a little more accurate.
Also I want to thank you for bringing this all to my attention and going over my edits. I'm sure it's pretty thankless and most people probably just get angry but I understand that I'm new to this and have a lot to learn.

No worries, we are always happy to welcome new mappers with good intentions and good quality edits.
I screenshotted a few of your edits and added comments - I haven't reviewed all your edits, but I hope this gives you an idea of things to work on.
