After all there is a bit of pride seeing the stuff you did appear in the map. Nothing to complain, if edits afterwards increase quality; in my case it did not and I now have to rework the section in question instead of taking care of other white areas...

In the case of yahoo imagery being off, in many cases it's very
accurate, so make sure you put a note on those ways that in the area the
yahoo imagery is not to be trusted.
In uprban areas the GPS tends to be way off, though, due to the poor
reception and multipath effects.
