Hi Bjenk,

What type of information are you looking to add about buildings? Some data
belongs in OSM while other attributes might be extraneous. Other people on
this list will also add their opinion on this issue I'm sure. If it's
something being done en masse, it's always best to take an abundance of
caution to not upset people at the errors that might crop up.

If you'd like to break work down into smaller chunks, there are tasking
managers available (including a Canada specific one) that help out with
manual tasks.
