Thanks for sharing your idea, I think you posted this idea in OpenStreetMap West Bengal Telegram Channel?
That’s me, you’re right 
So, OSM is an ongoing mapping project ? And users can edit maps individually ?
From my experience, l can say that more and more young people would find it more useful to edit OSM from their pocket smart phones. I really loved the OSM tracker, although l’m yet to explore its full potential. And l’m happy with organic maps.
From their end, the developers are being requested to note down my feedback.
Yes, exactly. Mappers map together.

there are various apps to do this, powerful universal editing apps as well as some filling a specialized niche, and also guided apps which make mapping easy without having to read a lot of documentation before.

Yet another track l recorded while went outside on my bicycle in the morning. I had gone out shopping locally. How can such recorded tracks be used in the main OSM database ?
I’m on the laptop right now. I’ve raised an issue in the post if you check. It’s showing me somewhere near RCGC, though I’ve never seen this place in my life 
Had a look into the OSM database. If I need to work on it, a mobile phone would be much better for me, since that is something that I am used to. Plus, there are the various apps to make my work much easier. But I have to eveolve very slowly, at snail pace !!
That’s the hardest way I found. Firstly, the live location is taking me miles away from where I am sitting. Secondly, I might be able to edit the map on the laptop, but I need tools for that. I need to figure out how to work with josm, and that would take me days to do, considering the time l can afford at the laptop. My first priority is to get my touch typing really at a decent speed. I don’t know yet which key is located where. So, my fingers need to be the first mappers on the keyboard 
Since the project that l’m proposing covers the vast area of the Bengali speaking people and the Bengali speaking culture, l suppose a separate private channel ought to be created on telegram for this massive OSM Bangla Project. As you can see, what l’ve done so far is mapped itsy bitsy piece of the Bangla land. So, if people can be engaged even in such bits and pieces, l believe that a beautiful map can emerge.
My first interaction with the OSM database on the laptop is not a very happy one as my live location is not showing me where l am located. My mobile is doing so faithfully. But the base map that’s coming up are showing wrong names of the places. Of course these can be edited, but I need to grow in my expertise. I need to learn a lot about apps, both for mobile as well as for the laptop.
