Sorry, I wasn't clear. The purpose of the list is to allow people to
discuss and co-ordinate the creation of good counter-vandalism tools
internationally, not to be a public flogging place for people who make
mistakes or indeed who scribble on the map or do worse things.
Vandalism and mistakes are different but need the same tools. If the
list is focused on creating tools to respond to really bad malicious
calculated vandalism then it will also provide the tools to recover
from innocent mistakes as well.
Possibly a different name would be clearer
talk-Counter_vandalism_tools, but that is getting a bit long. Any
other ideas or feedback?
