+1 to Richard's suggestion odbl=clean<br>

<br>
Just a tiny little clarification - this isn't something I've dreamed up,<br>
it's a real live tag with 9,000 occurrences in the database already, and<br>
which is being used by status visualisations such as OSM Inspector. :)<br>

Yes, the trouble is when Frederik pointed this out and referred to the page, it says it is for cases where the suspect edit has been wiped out, not simply verified from other sources. How can you change the name from itself to itself and actually have changed anything?<br>
<br>
If odbl=clean is OK for this then that's great, but I am troubled that I may go to a lot of trouble to deal with these and then find they get removed anyway. The lack of clear direction is very frustrating (as is the apparent need to do more work than necessary). It would be so much easier if we knew for sure what the rules actually are.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
</font></span></blockquote><div><br>That is pretty much my point also. I will do the necessary work when there is a stable and reasonable description of what that work is and is not and I have confidence that the description is stable.<br>
<br>Hearing that there is disagreement on what the (as yet undocumented) odbl=clean tag means and how it should be used doesn't excite me to do the work yet! To help the process along I have created an simple article for odbl=clean here:<br>
