[OSM-newbies] river not rendering

Short answer- it's a matter of time. 

Long answer is that the servers can take anywhere from a few minutes to a day or more to render all the tiles that changed (tiles that have never rendered before take orevidence over re-rendering cached tiles IIRC)
. 

If you don't have any other changes planned for a specific area that needs a re-render, click on the permalink in the bottom right corner of the slippymap and add /dirty to the end of the URL.  This will up the tile's priority in the render queue. 

Hope this helps,
Chris

I'm tracing out the Amur river from Yahoo imagery.  There is a section
that isn't rendering, and I can't figure out why.  You can see the
whole missing section here at zoom 10
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.818&lon=139.896&zoom=10&layers=B000FTF
although the islands don't show up, making it look like a bigger river
than it is.

The other sections of the river (that are mapped so far) render all
the way from zoom 6.

Then it appears at zoom 11:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.898&lon=139.715&zoom=11&layers=B000FTF

I know this is a rendering thing, not a mapping thing, but I copied
the tags for that section of the river directly from the downstream
section that someone else mapped before me, that renders correctly,
just adding a multipolygon relation for the islands.  So I'm afraid
I'm doing something wrong.  Or is it just a matter of time before that
part shows up?  Anyone have an idea?

Thanks,
Aspen (eulochon)
