</span>Thanks for the detective work and for persisting with this.<br>
<br>
I think it's very unlikely, however, that these users are editing OSM for a<br>
company. Probably the majority of edits in the UK are done by what you might<br>
call "lone mappers". Generally this works well and people plough their own<br>
furrows successfully, happily modifying their practice if particular issues<br>
are pointed out to them. But occasionally we have people who (perhaps<br>
because of limited social skills) find it difficult to follow established<br>
practice and co-operate with other contributors. There have been several<br>
examples in the past and I'm sure many regulars here will be aware of a few<br>
of them.<br>
<br>
That's what I think we have here. I have no knowledge as to whether<br>
Glucosamine, Dyserth and Sam888 are the same person or not - it wouldn't<br>
surprise me either way. But they/he very much fit the "uncommunicative lone<br>
mapper" model.<br>
