WELCOME.md

Welcome to OpenStreetMap, the world's open-source map.

You've just joined a community of over one million contributors who are creating a free, worldwide map. Welcome!

To introduce you to OpenStreetMap, we have compiled a guide with lots of information about mapping and the OpenStreetMap community. We hope you find this useful!

If you have questions that our guide does not cover, help is always close at hand on our Q&A web site.

Happy mapping!

Looks good - the only thing I'd add is something about adding a pointer to finding other users in the local area. (If that's not too much additional info).

Seems good to me too.
Should there be any note here about all of the edits going live immediately? Wording would be key and I don't have a proposal for addition right now.
