<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://learnosm.org/en/">http://learnosm.org/en/</a>
has had a few updates!</p>
<p>My thanks to the whole team who have done such a great job on
improving the site recently. It's a team effort with work by
many people, who help to make it all happen. I'll mention a few
names, and can only apologise to those I miss - the help,
feedback and advice is terrific - please keep it up!<br>
</p>
<p><b>Technical updates</b> that now give us a dropdown list for
the translations, a 'Quick access' list for those items we think
will be helpful to new mappers, and colour changes for sections
of the menu visited (Michael Heißmeier).</p>
<p><b>Organising a mapathon</b> with downloadable checklists
(Ralph Aytoun, Michael Heißmeier & others)<br>
</p>
<p>A new section <b>'HOT-tips'</b> aimed at helping new mappers
get started using the Tasking Manager and iD editor. Validators
may also find it useful if looking for a guide to link to when
sending feedback. Sections include <b>tracing round buildings (</b><a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://learnosm.org/en/hot-tips/tracing-round-buildings/">http://learnosm.org/en/hot-tips/tracing-round-buildings/</a><b>)</b>,
tracing <b>rectangular buildings</b>, saving your work, copying
and pasting etc.. Links are included to short training video's .
(Many of the people in this list may not realise how influential
their help and advice was in producing this section; Tyler
Radford, Blake Girardot, Bryan Housel, Ralph Aytoun, Suzan Reed,
Sam Colchester, Michael Heißmeier, John Whelan, Andrew Wiseman,
Laura O'Grady & others).<br>
<br>
<b>Translations - a special thanks to the translators</b> who
help to produce the guides within LearnOSM, but also make the iD
editor, Tasking Manager & countless other guides and
resources available throughout the world. It amazes me how
diverse the languages are spread, with people throughout the
world reading the site. If you would like to help with
translations, please go to <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.transifex.com">https://www.transifex.com</a>
and search for HOTOSM.</p>
<p>New members of the team are always welcome and the only
qualification needed is a willingness to help - feedback and
advice is especially welcome!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Nick (Tallguy)<br>
