In what way is Yew Tree House an attraction?
-
Comment from CathyH2808
Only In the same way as other houses on the street. They are listed (e.g. Jessamine Cottage). Why is this a problem? It helps visitors to the village know exactly where they are.

If you wish to remove this listing, I will feel disappointed but won't argue about it.

There is no need to remove it. The name should be moved to addr:housename field and tourism=attraction should be removed as it is not somewhere tourists would visit.

I am not techy(!) You may have already gathered this. I can't seem to amend the category or know how to follow your instructions (though I am happy to do so!)
Please can you explain to a numpty exactly how & what changes I need to make & when I get another break from work I will action them. Thanks. -

Hi Cathy,
I see that user SK53 has corrected this.
What Phil was referring to is what I see far too often in english-speaking countries where the app, maps.me, is in use.
That is, far too many items are given a default to be a tourist attraction.
In other-language countries, other defaults appear far too often where they have no place, like alpine huts in coastal cities near the equator -- I have been trying to clean up after some of the damage this app has spammed.
I suspect that the proper way to repair this cannot be done with maps.me, but by use of a more advanced beginner editor on the OSM website, which will allow you to do many things not possible from the maps.me app.
I have never used the app, nor, having suffered through the damage it's done, do I have any interest, so what I write here is largely conjecture.
I hope I have explained a little bit about what is the issue.
And thanks to the other user, you need to do nothing more here! -

Thank you so much for your comments. Very useful! Won't touch Maps.me again though in case I get it wrong again! You're a star! 👍

Forgot to mention I'd changed it! From aerial imagery it looks as if the house is a slightly different shape from that shown.
With maps.me you can also add a note which puts a marker on the map saying something like "Yew Tree House".
Someday I'll do more mapping in Hickling, last time I only added housenumbers on Harles Acres.
