Can someone please look at http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/151563608 for me and let me know what I am doing wrong. I am new at this and would like to contribute to my local area. I have done a few other bodies of water, streets, and boundaries, they have all been fine, but this one will not render. It shows the label, but not the lake.

It's not quite a closed loop. If you have a look at this node and zoom right in, you can see that it is at one end of a line - not part of a circular way. If you remove that node leaving the remaining closed loop, the lake will show up.

Thank you 1000x! I've been scratching my head over that one for two days now!
