Zooming out a bit, some mappers (even on a regional level) will focus more or less, on this or that: sometimes on landuse (residential, commercial, industrial, recreation...), sometimes on landcover (trees vs. scrub), sometimes on land ownership. And (land) use, cover and ownership are only three aspects of sensible things "to" map and "what people actually DO map." There is some overlap between these things, there is a real need to keep them distinct. It really is complicated and can take much discussion. THEN, there is what gets rendered (and how that happens in any given renderer).
I keep saying it, but I'll extend it: "Map your best." I'll include "wiki your best" (if you write or edit wiki), but I'll also begin to add "post to talk-pages your best."
While we do go a bit off-track sometimes, we do OK. Please: keep talking, everybody.
