+ subtitle: a free map that you can edit
+ introduction_html: |
+ Unlike other maps, OpenStreetMap is completely <abbr title="OpenStreetMap has over
+ 1 million users, who add data based on local knowledge, GPS tracks, and more">created
+ by people like you</abbr>, and free for anyone to fix, update, download and use.
+ Here's a quick guide to get you started.
+ section_1:
+ title: 'One Map: Many Websites'
+ paragraph_1_html: |
+ If you're here to correct an error you found on a site like Foursquare or Craigslist,
+ you're in the right place - OpenStreetMap is the central map database used by hundreds
+ of websites.
+ paragraph_2_html: |
+ You just need to edit OpenStreetMap, and the changes will be visible everywhere else.
+ Copying the map data from place to place can take from a few minutes to a few hours,
+ so don't worry if it isn't instant.
+ section_2:
+ title: What's on the Map
+ on_html: |
+ OpenStreetMap is a place for mapping things that are both <em>real and current</em> -
+ it includes millions of buildings, roads, and other details about places. You can map
+ whatever real-world features are interesting to you.
+ off_html: |
+ What it <em>doesn't</em> include is opinionated data like ratings, historical or
+ hypothetical features, and data from copyrighted sources. Unless you have special
+ permission, don't copy from online or paper maps.
