Going back to this discussion and because it was raised again during a
F2F meeting last Saturday [0].  I corrected a a lot of duplicates.
First, I extracted all version1 node contribution of username:ivet
that has a key osm_id using overpass:

<query type="node">
  <user name="ivet"/>
  <has-kv k="osm_id"/>
  </query>
<print mode="meta"/>

My assumption for extracting this data is that they are existing OSM
POIs which were planned to be polygonized but was accidentally
uploaded.
In my random, eye-balling. I did see many of these duplicates (2-3
times).  I completely deleted these duplicated using JOSM validation
[1]

Please have a look and let me know if I made it worse.
