I am editing right now this region (my trace): https://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=53.16436&lon=18.69398&zoom=15&layers=M and I noticed (switch to editor please) a hundreds of points -- type: unknown. Was it some kind of vandalism and I should now delete those points since I see them (reason: such points serve no purpose (?) and just make map bigger), or should I leave them? asked 18 Sep '12, 21:48  macias |
One Answer:
The history of the nodes (e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/587574579/history) shows that these nodes are redacted during the license change. Feel free to support the remapping effort. answered 18 Sep '12, 22:10  mmehl 2 You should explain that "redacted" means that the nodes have been part of a way removed by the licence change process. The way was created by a person who did not accept the new CT/ODbl but the nodes have been created by one user who did accepted. (18 Sep '12, 22:20) Pieren |

Some of those nodes has been edited by https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Redaction%20Account%20Bugfix and perhaps Frederik Ramm or someone else can give an explanation of why those kind of nodes has occurred and how to handle them.
