don't give you to much confidence that you can communicate in the wiki

... this reminds member guggis (aka myself) to be more precise when
giving advice ;-) Don't worry, a sandbox is a sandbox. And it only
requires three mouse clicks to undo whatever one does on the wiki.
Test it out yourself:<br>
* go to the sandbox <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Sandbox">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Sandbox</a><br>
* click on the tab "history" <br>
* click on "undo" for one of your entries <br>
* click on "Save"<br>

Unfortunatelly, yes. But hopefully we're going to change that in the
future, see what Mikel wrote here: <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/Haiti_Strategy_And_Proposal#Social_Processes">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/Haiti_Strategy_And_Proposal#Social_Processes</a><br>
<br>
Regarding rivers: if you're refering to <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti/Tasks_and_Ideas/RiverLabeling">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti/Tasks_and_Ideas/RiverLabeling</a>
then try again to edit the section "Who is involved?" and add your
signature (~~~~). Sending a mail to talk-ht is fine too.<br>

Every node or way in OSM has a unique number. way 30048192, for
instance, is road in Port-Au-Prince. For every object there is a link
where you can browse the object, i.e. <br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/30048192">http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/30048192</a>. If someone is looking
for the link to an OSM object he is looking for this link.<br>
