[OSM-talk] "Limitations on mapping private information" - wiki page

The first two bullet points are poorly worded:

building=house is "where individual people live".

"There is no need to split residential landuse into individual plots."
if that means the actual tag landuse=residential, then I'd probably 
agree, but there is nothing wrong with this level of detail mapping:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/52.51352/-1.85486

The wording , as it's written currently, contradicts the last point, 
which I believe to be correct.

The other points fall under "too transient to map".
