Hi,
Simper Road appears consistently across Google, Esri and Main Roads travel map (which uses Google Maps).

Does this mean that OSM is already ingesting data from Main Roads?

Do people normally give their house number with this?
32024-12-14 13:29nevw I don’t know but as it is on a map I guess these street number is not needed. I notice on the wiki the location is used to direct users to the exact location and where to find it and I guess that is so the public can find it quickly in an emergency.

no
32024-09-21 10:33nevw You have added the business address to the whole building.
If the business occupies a floor or unit within the building, you should add a node within the building outline and add the business tags to it instead of the building outline.
Same goes for interstate offices.
42024-09-21 10:35nevw The tag addr:floor or addr:unit may be applicable
52024-09-22 00:47nevw I am shifting the business tags from the building to a separate node at this site...401 Collins Street, but noticed your web page has the Melbourne Main Office at 220 Collins St.

https://heroshotphotography.com/contact/

Which is correct please?
62024-09-25 11:53nevw Because of the discrepancy between the business web site listed addresses and where you have mapped the business, I am inclined to delete this entry.
Can you explain why this mapped address should remain thanks.
Is it because not all of the businesses office locations are listed on their website?

Osmi informs that the multipolgon needs correcting
https://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=areas&lon=149.15488&lat=-21.14709&zoom=17

You should use ...

12024-05-10 13:18nevw Hi, welcome to osm.
Building:flats is not for listing the individual flats numbers (eg 1,2,3,etc) - it is for listing the number of flats (eg 30)
Do these apartment buildings really have names as you have tagged or would the addr tags suffice.

This is 100% Pokemon GO mapping. A recent update made a certain kind of Pokemon appear exclusively at beaches.
The original mapper here needs to be aware that the map data in Pokemon GO is based on an old version of OSM and making bad edits like this will likely have no impact.
