Likely all of this user's edits are either completely made up, changed or deleted existing data. https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/drakopineda Example changeset:https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/30173761 Changing road name:https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/12842778/history Adding phony lake:https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/338193859 Deleting a cemetery:https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/357552495/history Is there a proper way of dealing with this? I think known bad accounts should be on a list and have their changesets reverted. It's a chore to find and go through all these malicious edits and check every change, especially when some are subtle like changing a highway maxspeed to 65 mph when the state maxspeed for that type of road is maximum of 55 mph. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/12795468 Vandalism will of course increase as OSM grows, and the more we depend on it the less vandalism should be ignored as the problem it is. |

See What should I do about vandalism? - I've also added changeset discussion entries to some of their edits and I guess we should revert unless they come back with a solid explanation. |
This is a questions site, not a discussion, suggestions or opinions site. You can post "I think"s and "should"s on the mailing lists or the bug trackers, but if you post them here, they're unlikely to be noticed by anyone with the ability or willingness to do anything about them.
