[Talk-GB] Unwarranted clearing of map notes by new person

[Andy Townsend]

Hi Tony,

If they're brand new to OSM, then they might just be finding out what 
the buttons do - it's not always obvious.

You can reactivate notes - I'd just do that.  The notes that any user 
has changed can be seen from their user page, in this case 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Shane%20Sharples/notes .  If they 
insist on resolving them again perhaps they need pointing at the "notes" 
checkbox in the UI so that they can see the map without any notes?

Best Regards,

Andy
