Yes, delete it - it's important not to lose any extra tags that might<br>
be there, so make sure of that (but in many cases it's just<br>
building=yes or whatever).<br>
<br>
Advanced JOSM users like to merge the old node into one of the new<br>
building's nodes, moving the tags from node to way, so that the<br>
object's history is "connected". Don't feel obliged to do that if it's<br>
tricksy.<br><br>
</blockquote><div>Probably most new users aren't using Potlatch, but for anyone that is, you can convert from node to area and keep all tags by selecting the node, then shift-clicking where you want another corner to be. </div>
