That user's most recent edit is<br>
<br>
<a href="http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=916388959" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=916388959</a><br>
<br>
which is just adding "access=private" to an existing track.<br>
<br>
Perhaps the deleted tracks (such as <br>
<a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/913163619/history" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/913163619/history</a> ) don't really exist <br>
as something we'd normally add to OSM?  To me, from the imagery, <br>
<a href="https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1bmL" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1bmL</a> just looks like a path taken by cows to <br>
walk around a bit of hedge (which does seem to be somewhat mismapped in <br>
OSM).  The person who added both is a relatively recent mapper, and <br>
certainly keen, but previous experience would suggest perhaps a little <br>
overenthusastic sometimes?<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
