Given the repetitive remarks on many other notes (also typically closed sans resolution), some context:

There are few mappers, at all, in Jersey. Certainly fewer than would be needed to keep up with the changes.

I seemed to be the only local doing on-foot surveying (hence focusing on smaller features, not seen in imagery).

Yes; many of them would require an on-site survey. Hence the #SurveyMe tag (which feeds into other tools, eg http://osm.mathmos.net/survey/ ).

I don't see the point in closing unresolved notes. There are far more important tasks needing to be done within the island(s).
