<b>Subject:</b> [OSM-talk] "NRCS basic OSM training" - low quality changesets in Nepal</font>
<div> </div>

<font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">
<div class="PlainText">There has been a number of users making very low quality edits<br>
(lowercase names, wrong tags. geometry problems among others) in<br>
Nepal. They all use this mysterious changeset description: "NRCS basic<br>
OSM training"<br>
If this is training, then the instructor clearly has no OSM expertise required.<br>
The mappers seem to make similar errors: misusing tags in addr:*<br>
namespace, making up amenity=* tags, starting names from lower case.<br>
<br>
Example changesets:<br>

<br>
You can see all of them around Nepal in WHODIDIT, I discovered half a<br>
dozen of users, there may be more. They have quite high edit volume<br>
and most of their edits need attention.<br>

<br>
Can we pin down who trains these mappers and demand them to stop and<br>
take corrective action?<br>
