The user was messaged on 3 separate occasions between 22 March 2012
and 14 September 2012, asking for him to use a dedicated import
account. Finally a short upload block was placed on his account.(which
ended 3 days ago)
The initial message on the 22 March 2012 and follow-ups pointed to the
guidelines ( <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines</a> )
which include that imports should be done from a dedicated account.
DWG != OSMF.
OSM is not unique, wikipedia too require a dedicated account for bots.

Grant

Hi,<br>
<br>
"What make you thing I am a bot?" -- <a
href="http://nlp-addiction.com/eliza/">Eliza</a> :-)<br>
<br>
I thing the point is not why my account was blocked, but why someone
have the right to block an account and whatfor ?<br>
<br>
"The road is the place between the buildings..." so I need the
buildings : Cadastre data are usefull (fully).<br>
<br>
All points of the guideline are wrong : no vandalism, no old work
destroy, no copyright enf. : no need to revert the Cadastre data
anyday, anytime.<br>
I accept, and respect all conditions with both my accounts : so what
the difference using the first or the second ? <br>
<br>
In fact DWG people just don't like imports and are jalous of the
"opendata" wind in France. Your anoying !<br>
<br>
