Two weeks ago I put in some houses in the Republic of Ireland. But whenever i go into the map view they are not there. I can still see them in the satelite view.

Why are they not in the map?

You haven't put any tags like building=yes or similar on your buildings on for example http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/217282850.

Keep Right may help you find editing mistakes like these if you scroll around. Keep Right is not updated instantly (but weekly I think), but is a good tool to raise the quality of OpenStreetMap.
