[Talk-GB] dodgy edits without good explanation around Wokingham/Winnersh/Finchampstead

Hello.

I'm getting concerned that I might be seen as victimising this person,
since no-one else seems to comment on their changes (except for DaveF in
one case).  Can someone look at
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/JunKwonGD/history and let me know if you
also feel concerned about their edits?  Some seem to be based on copying
from questionable sources ("street view" and "Google" for some changesets,
council documents for others, some changesets seem to be based on some kind
of plans from developers as they add things that do not exist yet).

It's frustrating because I've had to revert two recent changes (one had
changed the roads to what was shown on Google StreetView from years ago,
the other changed a now separated road into a joined road (again not unlike
StreetView) and added a non-existent road, not long after I surveyed the
area), and fix another (where all parts of a road were joined, where one
section was a bridge).

If nothing else, the changeset comments are fairly useless and give no idea
about the source of the edits.

Jon
