From OSM's main welcome page:<br>

"OpenStreetMap is a place for mapping things that are both <em>real
and current"<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/welcome">https://www.openstreetmap.org/welcome</a><br>

Real as in physical, current as in still physically there (OSM
should not be mapping razed buildings or the routes of long gone
railways)<br>

If I look at the place I linked, I see a house in a garden and a
hedge. If you ask most folk what they see, they would say the
same.
<br>
<br>
I don't know anyone who would say "I see a residential area". Or
"I see a plot of land with planning class C3 or C4".

map what you see on the ground, <span data-dobid="hdw">Any legalese
requirements (access restrictions etc) can be added as secondary
