[closed] The road I added does not appear when zoomed out

0

Hello,

Yesterday I added my first road in OpenStreetMap, a missing one near where I live these days. I can see it in OpenStreetMap but only when zooming in a lot, and even in this case, it's showing halfway. See these 3 screenshots taken at several zoom levels:
The road does not appear
Half of the road appear
The road appear except for the end

What bugs me is that the road I connected to is showing up from far away, yet it has only the 'road:unclassified' tag, the same one I used on mine. (I then used the flash editor and added info like pedestrian allowed, but it did not change anything on the rendered map)

So, did I do something wrong?
