I went to correct an error and it had been fixed by mentor, I could not find him among users, is it an automatic corrector. and how long does he/her/it wait before starting work? asked 22 Jul '13, 09:17 andy mackey |
One Answer:
As far as can be seen from https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mentor , "mentor" is a normal user just like you. answered 22 Jul '13, 09:28 Frederik Ramm ♦ edited 22 Jul '13, 10:44 Richard ♦ |
Sorry mentor and thanks Frederik, but he's not showing up in my search at the moment, I'll try later
What search?
Frederik's link wasn't working, but is now
This is where I went wrong. I searched for "mentor" after clicking on users on this forum page (after testing it with some known user names, which all worked) but as he as not used the forum he did not exist. I then jumped to the conclusion, added to official sounding name that he was a robot fixer. I forgot that wiki, mapping and the forum are sort of separate areas of OSM and I had not searched all contributors.
