Spend my day playing Factorio and programming on my database of mills. The data is from OpenStreetMap, and I have the goal to triangulate it with other sources.

I can now view the mills and filter by country. Already a lot of 'mills' that might not be mills at all. And when I triangulate the data, I'm sure I'll find lots of missing mills.

Now, how do I solve it when something is not a mill, but I'm not sure what it is? 🤔

@thomastospace make a note in OSM, people local to the place can check it out and fix it if needed.

I regularly contribute to OSM, but when unsure I make a note for others to add the correct tags based on my description, or to check it out themselves when I know it's wrong. And I also check the notes in my area (though often they are fixed by other people before I see them)

@thomastospace @CodexNotFound add the parameter &layers=N to the URL or select Notes in the layer view (can be activated by the icon on the right side) or use the link https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=8/52.305/12.629&layers=N and go to your area
