S/he has primarily added street names in St. Amable, but also adding a "source=google". I've just sent the user an email explaining the situation and asking for clarification. The question now is if we should wait until we hear back or if it's better to revert the changeset right away in order to be on the safe side.

You contacted the user and given them direction, that's the correct
first step.  Keep an eye on the user's next changesets.  Did you
request a reply?  If so, consider whether the reply allays your
concerns.  If not, send the information to data at osmfoundation.org (The
Data Working Group) for followup.  Going to this list should probably
be further down the list.  So, not until the user has been
non-responsive, or has given an unsatisfactory response.
