Isn't the principle supposed to be: It's better to lave less known 
correct mapping, than lots of mapping some of which is complete rubbish.

If there are very, and many, obvious errors, then it's better to revert 
the changeset immediately, than to leave it until someone else comes 
along and corrects it, or adds new and correct information, which then 
complicates any reversion of rubbish, and also means you have to have 
low confidence in anything else mapped in that changeset.

No, far better to revert it, and if there were (in my opinion unlikely) 
some good mapping in there, then it can always be re-entered correctly 
afterwards.
If he has to reenter the data then he, (like everyone) will learn from 
his mistakes, but let's ensure that only goof information is maintained.
