Comment from Carnildo
Welcome to OpenStreetMap!
A couple of tips for better mapping:
1. You can change the background imagery by clicking on the "Background settings" tab in the editor -- the one that looks sort of like three stacked sheets of paper. Different imagery options are newer, or sharper, or better-aligned. In the Missoula area, it looks like "Esri World Imagery" is the newest, while "Esri World Imagery (Clarity) Beta" is the sharpest. I can't tell about alignment.
2. When you're adding things to the map, try not to connect unrelated objects to each other: it makes the map harder to edit and can confuse software that's trying to interpret the data. Connecting similar types of objects is fine (eg. connecting a park to a residential area, or connecting two buildings that share a wall), and connecting intersecting roads, trails, and the like is essential for routing software to be able to work properly.
You can tell that the editor wants to connect two objects because your cursor gains a tiny green dot or line in the lower-right corner, and you can tell they've been connected because there's a gray dot at the point where they meet.
Thanks for your contributions, and happy mapping!
