1.What else can be done to track mappers like this?Do we have any tool that
could provide the location of such mapper at the point of mapping?
2.With this kind of problem,I think its also necessary to make the profile
completion of newbies signing up to OSM mandatory.maybe providing questions
such as?
Do you already belong to local OSM community?if yes,provide name and
location
how else can we reach you?phone no?......

We need to keep effective track of new OSM mappers so we handle or prevent
this kind of problem.The mappers's username:TimSchepan has no other info
about his/her profile.
Thanks @ John for the great job you re doing.
