How does OSM handle conflict resolution? Different info, multiple listings, spam, etc.

There are folks who review the changelogs, and when there are mistakes users can make pins on the maps.

I'm checking out Street Complete, but I can't seem to modify or contribute info for the apartment I'm living in. I don't want random quests, I want to be and to key in and / or verify info for places I'm familiar with. What app should I be using?

Edit: Google says Vespucci, gonna give that a try

I use Every Door. It allows to add information to various types of features (shops, buildings and more) and I find it easy to use.

Vespucci is great but it has a high learning curve and some awful default settings. Stay with it and tweak the settings!

Unlike Street Complete, you can actually see and edit the tags directly.

I use street complete. You can edit nodes if you need to, but sometimes it's just easier to edit on the computer in the website.
