road disappears when zooming in!

Hello,
Newbie here. This is in reference to http://www.openstreetmap.org/?minlon=-114.0961774&minlat=51.1679933&maxlon=-114.0923021&maxlat=51.171266&box=yes

I added the street names to these roads; the roads themselves were already there. However, now when I zoom in on the region, the roads I modified disappear. (You may have to zoom out to see the streets that are there). What have I done wrong?

Thanks for the help!
T.

Mapnik is not reredering a way / node if only an attribut is added / changed. Minimum on node has to be moved.
Under certain circumstances a rerendering occours automaticly, when the tile has been marked “out of date” (eg. a new object has been entered nearby).
Rerendering of the entire planet is done on occasion.
You can force Mapnik to render by adding “/dirty” to the URL of the image (eg. http://c.tile.openstreetmap.org/17/23996/43781.png/dirty))

btw: Referring to a specific object (node/way/relation) is easier by posting his ID or his related URL (eg http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/50866332))
