[talk-au] OpenStreetMap Wiki page Australian Tagging Guidelines has been changed by Aaronsta

[forster at ozonline.com.au]

Hi
https://hdyc.neis-one.org/?aaronsta is interesting reading. This user   
has had29% of their edits reverted and 2 blocks but is still the 14th  
highest contributor in Australia. Members of this talk-au , we'll k  
nown ones, have had multiple discussions with the user but it seems  
like nobody has joined the dots.

A similar situation happened recently with another user. Many of the  
regular contributors to this list had crossed paths with him but it  
seemed none realised the scale of his edits.

Would it be possible to have training or sandards of communication and  
consultation that high volume users need to reach?

Maybe it would be good to not display the ranking of users at hdyc

Tony
