The "problematic edits" part is still current - this changeset
of mine for example is mostly about deleting buildings from
mspray16: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

This is a new mapper as of just over a week ago:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mspray16</a><br>

<p>"New" - like all those other users who just happen to be named
msprayXX and produce the same slop:<a

that what they're doing is causing a problem.</p>

<p>In the case of spammers and vandals you're broadly correct -
someone who draws genitalia on the White House lawn is unlikely to
think that they're making a valid contribution to OSM. These
mappers surely do - no matter how bad the instructions they were
given or the work they carried out.</p>
