Pretty short info about myself... Hi! This is the short description of myself that I've put in my profile here on italki.com. I'm sure it is not perfect. Trying to level-up my English, I'll appreciate any remarks through all the text, from its beginning to the end, including this one :) I've copied the text from my profile not for self-advertising, but because being a hardcore IT-pro, it's really hard for me to write any essays even in my native language :)) But I still struggle myself, because the ability to express the internal thoughts from deep inside of your mind on paper is the essential property of any person that will always be helpful through the entire life. ---------- I'm a software developer currently working on my own project. I like science fiction books and movies, and nearly any music genre compositions as long as they sound pleasant to me. Currently dreaming of a huge four-wheel-drive pickup to go on a weekend rides to the most vivid places of our big country with my family, that currently consists of beautiful wife and pretty little daughter who is 3.5 y.o. I am Russian, I live and born in Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan was the member of USSR until 1991, and until 1991 the Russian language was the main. It is considered by many people, even in Russia, that Russian language in Kazakhstan is currently the most clean and genuine, it has no regional impacts that happen to be in Russia. This relates equally to grammar, writing and pronunciation. Being a native Russian speaker, I'll be glad helping you to learn Russian in exchange. The communication can be of any form, from just exchanging the questions to friendly chatting, if we'll find common interests. Feel free to msg me, I'm opened to any discussion! :)

My forum post part 2 Here's one of my forum posts on Google Maps forums, I'm sure it's far from perfect, could you please point to any mistakes? Here we go, Part 2 ----- Now, with my request being approved, I'll wait a day or two for the building number to be refreshed on the map. If it will - I'll post here and apologize sincerely for being a bit of an as*hole in my previous posts, though the whole process of applying the edits is complicated and non-intuitive for some cases like mine, anyway. No description of the logic is provided anywhere in the Help Center, and users just left to guess, how exactly it all works. Being the IT man myself, I use to bother the support if I really get stuck in something, after trying all possible and advanced ways that I'm able to get to from the user space. That is why I always go pissed off when I receive some common solutions from the support scripts, it's a kind of professional deformation, I guess.

My forum post part 1 Here's one of my forum posts on Google Maps forums, I'm sure it's far from perfect, could you please point to any mistakes? Here we go, Part 1 --- Hi, Flash, thank you for fast response. I've found the option and have sent new edit request. As I've stated earlier, I've used to send the same request from time to time in the past, but from mobile client instead. Concerning the status of my edit: I can't see the request in "Your contributions > EDITS" section. You see, when I send request using "Send feedback -> Missing place", I see the request inside the forementioned section, but if I use "Send feedback -> Suggest an edit", the request isn't shown, so I can't find it's status. Right now, I've tried "Missing place" one more time, the request is approved. However, the previous same requests were rejected. The difference between the previous and latest request is just the "Name" field, the most recent I've used is "Apartment building", the previous was "Mnogokvartirnyy Dom", and the one before that was "Многоквартирный дом" (they're all Apartment building in English). The category I've chosen for all requests was "Apartment building" from PC Browser, and "Многоквартирный дом" from mobile client (I use Russian locale). The label "Mnogokvartirnyy Dom" for this place have always been there, maybe the reason of previous requests rejection was that I've used the same value in the "Name" field. But then, why does the comparing logic account for the Name, but not the Category? Comparing the last and new category and rejecting the request if they are equal seems to have more sense than comparing the Names. Also, the Categories are better to maintain in terms of different locales, because the variants are limited to a pre-defined list, and it's every element can have multiple localized display names, still being unique for the system.
