Hi MCulver,
Welcome and thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap (OSM). OSM is the real map of the world. The edits you have seems somewhat not clear. Wanted to flag that the `highway=road` tag can be replaced with `track` and also can you confirm the parks which was added.
Let me know if you need anything regarding mapping.
Best Regards,

Comment from MCulver
Hey Nammala,
Glad to help and sorry if some of my edits are unclear. The roads that I saw on the map all looked like simple dirt roads, so I simply marked them as "road unknown" since there was no other choice for "simple road".
Also, whenever I saw a man-made clearing whose purpose wasn't obvious, I marked it as a "park" because I didn't see any better choices. It's possible "farmland" would have been a better choice of words but I wasn't 100% sure it was used as farmland and decided to use the more neutral term "park" to describe a general cleared-out area.
Thanks

Thanks Mculver for the prompt response. Could you please follow the wiki for tagging the roads https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway which will help you in understanding the tagging appropriately. Also for the parks is used for recreational purpose see wiki https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dpark. It is better you clear the edits which are inappropriate and also tag features by the help of wiki.
I hope you will make it and make OSM the best map.
Happy to help :)Best Regards,

Hi Nammala,
Thanks for the information. I checked again a few minutes ago and it looks like someone else already changed all of the roads I had marked to be "tracks" or "paths" instead. I changed a few of the areas I marked as parks into "farmland". Hopefully that is more accurate.
Thanks
