I have now looked further into this, and it appears that the app collects
the data and sends it to the publisher, who will then upload the POIs into
OSM. At least this is what it looks like.

thank you, I wouldn't want to escalate to the DWG if avoidable, it is not a
huge issue (~1000 objects) and the things are not appearing to be wrong,
just different tags rather than standard tags.
The object level source tag may be seen as kind of spam, but as far as I
have seen til now, the edits seem to be old (4-5 years) and maybe by that
time it wasn't clear yet to everybody, where to be put source information.

Cheers,
Martin
