Comment:

Advice was unspecific, questions why or when are not covered. It suggests saving to a disk without warning about conflicts. I added more precise advice how to save files and how to avoid conflicts by uploading quicker / without overlaps just above

    1919- (unlike every other editor?) JOSM will let you upload changes to already opened (but not a closed) changeset (see [[#Multipleuploadsintoonechangeset]]). Every open changeset will "close" automatically by http://openstreetmap.org server after 1 hour.

    24 Please be careful with editing and uploading data. When in doubt that everything is okay, refrain from uploading and save the area locally to disk, check what you need and try again later.

    2922Geo data contributed to the OSM server consists of [Concepts/Object nodes, ways, and relations]. Because there are hundreds of mappers publishing their geo data on the OSM server it is important to track who published what data in which context. It would be tedious for mappers to describe why every single node and every single way is published. A more convenient approach is to package a group of related objects and assign the package itself a comment, instead of the individual objects.
