I want to express thanks to all for a bit of education on the manner 
of discussion presented--how to refer to a specific object, how to 
(possibly) open a ticket, etc.  The wiki, for instance, led me to 
believe the way to open a ticket was to hang a note on an object.

I'll be surveying the school some time in the next week.

_Tagging for the Renderer_

The closest I've come is 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/5322780
where I drew and addressed the individual buildings, then created 
the relation.  Addresses were shown on the rendered map, but later 
were gone.  I looked into it and found someone had moved addr:street 
to the relation but had left addr:housenumber on the individual 
buildings, so I "fixed" it.

Justification: all elements of an address belong together.  This is 
obviously right because it keeps the renderer happy.

Comments?

I've been tempted in the case of trailer parks where I've been 
unsatisfied with my tagging efforts, e.g.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/213616682
which is just a closed way with landuse=residential and addressing 
information.  The address is not rendered.

I like to see addresses on the map because I like to use the map as 
a visual aid to mental routing, the old fashioned way.
