I note that from looking around the area in which i live that a significant number of poi's are in the wrong position, being retired i was quite happy to sit here and gradually work through a good number of them and relocate them to there correct positions, thus helping everyone. Having spent sometime working my way through the poi editing function ive decided to leave that one well alone, the editing feature is so complicated to use that i just wont bother.

They are relatively easy once you get into them,
Go into Submitt poi
Zoom into map,using rh mouse key to location you want
set first option to Change existing POI
set crosshair cursor where you want it postitioned dragging the Map
click on poi for poi ident no, use side scroll bars, not dragging map otherwise you move hair line cursor
add your comments, i.e. relocated due to local knowledge
Then submitt
I usually chenge one or two per visit, and their is quite a few misplaced, probaly by being placed by postcode, so any help is valuable, so please dont give up.

By the Way after you submitt, you will see the poi shown lightly in the new position, thus showing you have done it correctly.
