Am I allowed to have multiple accounts for editing OpenStreetMap? It's not permitted some other sites (e.g. Wikipedia, though with a few exceptions), and I just want to check whether it's OK here. |

Yes, it is allowed. Obviously we'd ask you not to abuse that freedom (by e.g. making a suggestion with one of your accounts on the Wiki and then enthusiastically supporting it with your other 200 accounts, or by inventing a new tag and using it with your 200 accounts to give the impression that it was widely used by many contributors, or so). 3
For importing data it es even encouraged to use a dedicated import account.

Frederik didnt mentioned that if you want to collect the points you earned, several accounts would not be the best way to go. 2
No points awarded for contributing, but you can see how you are doing with How did you contribute to OpenStreetMap ?

@Richard: I guess Hendrikklaas means contributions to this site (help.osm.org). However, the question explicitly is about editing OSM.
