<p>Tracey,</p>
<p>I just want to say some of the edits are really destructive: eg
entire streets are changed/removed (on campus and off campus). My
automated error checking script comparing what is in the City of
Ottawa street list and what is in OSM caught some errors, which I
spent time fixing. Adding fire hydrants and trees in the middle
of roads, tagging a street lamp as an address are other very weird
things I found. The students need to pay way more attention to
what they are doing. </p>
<p>Less volume, more quality please!<br>

<div dir="auto">I'm not trying to stop your students from
contributing, but when they simply ignore advice we try to
give them to correct said actions(kept contributing after
multiple changeset comments: they get an email per changeset
comment) we need a higher power(admins) to step in so we can
discuss like human beings. </div>
