<p>Thanks Warin and Graeme. I had also sent a private message, and
no response either.</p>
<p>I went ahead and did my first revert with the JOSM plugin, which
is some fun mental gymnastics... Only 7 conflicts, thankfully.
Revert changeset is this one:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/104711700">https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/104711700</a></p>
<p>So out of the 7 changesets, 2 have been reverted:</p>
<ul>
<li><a moz-do-not-send="true"

<p>I don't have time to review (and revert if need be) the other

<div>I agree with the concerns you raised in the changeset
comment, and that the changesets are well-meaning, so let's
see if and how they respond first. There are only a handful
of changesets all from 18 days ago at this point.</div>

<p>Hi all</p>
<p>I am <i>respectfully </i>writing to hear what you
think about this changeset from a seemingly new
contributor. I definitely don't want to publicly shame
someone's well-meaning contribution, but after
commenting on the changeset, I want to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Inform others that the area they contribute to
might have been affected too</li>
<li>Know what other contributors think about the
nature of the changes, given that I have very little
experience with fixing / reverting changes that
affect such large areas.</li>
</ul>
<p>You will notice from the <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Australets/history"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">changeset
history of the contibutor</a> that all their
changesets were submitted on one single day, the day
they created their OSM account, and that they affect
very distant areas around the world (which makes me
think there isn't much local knowledge involved).<br>
</p>
<p>The changeset that affects the area I am familiar
with is changeset <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/103074912"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">103074912</a>.
But if you live around Geraldton (WA), you might also
be interested in this one: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/103072911"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">103072911</a>.<br>
</p>
<p>Here is the message I wrote after I noticed the
changes in my area, so you have a better idea of my
concerns, but given the size of the changeset, I
haven't been able to give it a thorough review.<br>
</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>Hi Australets! I was wondering about the motivation
between this changeset, as it changed quite a few
things in the area where I contribute. <br>
What is the idea behind merging addresses, buildings
and points of interest? I know there are different
opinions on the matter, but I can see definite
drawbacks in the merging you did, at least in some
cases. For example, some of the resulting buildings
end up having a "source" tag that used to refer to
only the address, but now seems to refer to the whole
object. <br>
See for example this one: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/401769723/history"
rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/401769723/history</a>
<br>
In other cases, the main building is apartments but
now has the name of one single shop included in it: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/444096785/history" rel="nofollow
noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/444096785/history</a>
<br>
In many cases, one single key could have a different
values for a building and a point of interest, even
though the general rule "One feature, one OSM element"
applies. (e.g. address, name, contact, source...).
Separate POIs are also helpful for shops to more
precisely show in the building where it is located. <br>
Let me know what you think!</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>Any input would be appreciated, especially tips about
the way forward!</p>
<p>Cheers<br>
