Do you only contribute what is useful for your own use cases, or whatever you can improve the map with?

I use that one for finding stuff, but I had no idea you could also add places with it! The interface actually seems pretty decent!

Keep in mind that Organic Maps is mainly a navigation tool. Their data source is up to a month outdated and things you map with it could be already mapped in the source but not updated in OM.
