Why are large sections of water the wrong colour?

0	I am not happy to see this. Is it a possible vandalism? Seems it has been reverted already, but probably it will take some more time before renders back again... water rendering vandalism asked 14 Nov '11, 13:57 Kozuch 1.7k●58●72●85 accept rate: 8% edited 30 Dec '11, 10:48

One Answer:

Perhaps it was just a coastline update or drawing error? Using OWL I was able to see two recent updates, with comments "canvec import in northern manitoba" and "fix coastline". I suspect that they may be related to what you're seeing!

Maybe the people here would have more idea?

Actually, there's discussion about this on the main talk list here:
