Should I just report them to the DWG, especially since he hasn't talked to talk-us about running the script? The reason I'm asking is because I've already spotted one of these type of users who is just running a script that is just changing tags from one to another type to rack up the edits. Heck, he's also somehow editing some nodes just to make them his without doing anything to them (no idea how he's doing that!).<br><br>-James<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center id=stopSpelling></span></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>From: <a href="mailto:steve@asklater.com">steve@asklater.com</a><br>Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:15:16 -0700<br>To: <a href="mailto:talk-us@openstreetmap.org">talk-us@openstreetmap.org</a><br>Subject: [Talk-us] Telenav giving away iPad Mini or Galaxy Note to Editor with the Most Edits Made By March 10<br><br>From;<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span class=ecxapple-tab-span><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'> </span></span><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'><a href="http://stevecoast.com/2014/02/11/telenav-giving-away-ipad-mini-or-galaxy-note-to-editor-with-the-most-edits-made-by-march-10/" target="_blank">http://stevecoast.com/2014/02/11/telenav-giving-away-ipad-mini-or-galaxy-note-to-editor-with-the-most-edits-made-by-march-10/</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>As many of you probably know, I’m heading up OSM initiatives over at Telenav, the Bay Area-company that develops GPS navigation apps like <a href="http://www.scout.me/app" target="_blank">Scout</a>.<br>For three years, Telenav has been dedicated to helping the community through map updates.
