I live in an area where tons of data is missing. I mean the whole areas with no street addresses, missing streets, missing bike routes, etc.
Is there a guide or special tools for preparing to make massive edits like this? Is there a particular work flow that people use or resources? How do I even get started?

If you’re familiar with the area I’d probably start with tracing in the roads that you know are traversable and getting the connectivity right. Add any missing names that you can remember off the top of your head. GPS traces can be good to align imagery or on their own if no imagery is available.
After that I’d probably focus on the major amenities. It can help to look down the map features list to see which things you can place from memory.
