OSM is one of the best projects on earth imo. Maps used to be costly, and incorrect/incomplete. And that's all just been blown away. Wikipedia the only other competitor. I've submitted a few edits, but haven't done a walk specifically for it - sounds good nerdy fun. There's a meetup in Edinburgh for editors, maybe one day I'll pop along
And I only did 1 whisky festival a few years ago, Whisky on the Fringe, it was excellent. Need to find someone else to go to another with me
Spot on about Wikipedia there, I wish I knew enough to contribute to it more! I pick up little things when I can, and I got involved with the thing a couple years back asking for pics of nature reserves and sites of scientific interest. There are a rare few spots now where the only pics are from me (solely because they're not that significant relative to how hard they are to get to, but hey I had a good day out getting them)
I've been using Street Complete to help with OSM for the most part, it makes it dead simple. I just log on to the actual website to correct more complicated stuff, or occasionally clean up mistakes I or someone else has made
