I requested a re-render of the tile and Ivania is gone now; but the last 
render was from 04 May which means that it has been up there for at 
least 6 days until someone brought it up.

Something to keep in mind for automatic vandalism detectors; anything 
rendered on small zooms is a more attractive target for playful 
contributors.

Bye
