Nice job! It's not that hard to find where you worked if you include some text, it's here: https://www.osm.org/#map=17/41.44296/31.74970
Some tips:
place=locality
tag on this thing is wrong: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1302651829 I can't figure out what is that from the aerial imagery, but locality in osm terminology is something different:Maybe the translation is wrong in the editor for this item, I see you used Turkish language. If it's some kind of an empty plaza or paved place, use
place=square
(wiki) orhighway=pedestrian
+area=yes
: a hard-surfaced, open pedestrian area: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/SquareThese are small problems, it's really nice, keep up the good work!
It's also recommended to reach out to the local community, they can help a lot. You can find your official channels on this site for any place of the World: https://openstreetmap.community/?map=36.94533,34.03161&zoom=5.52
Thanks for the tips. I will be better soon.
You are already in the top 40 in Turkey: https://osmstats.neis-one.org/?item=countries&country=Turkey
See your stats here: https://hdyc.neis-one.org/?Alpagun
Wow, I didn't know there was such a statistics page. It's nice. Thanks
