[Talk-us] Advice On Data Removal Problem

So there is a fairly new mapper in the Phoenix area removing valid data.  I
would like advice on what to do.  I don't to want dampen this mapper's
efforts.  However, another mapper has complained to me about the problem as
this mapper has removed both of our work.  Change set
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/18867333 is an example where
CartoCrazy even uses a change set description of "Cleaned up clutter of
pedestrian crossing markers,..."  I am all for data revisions but this is
an example of vandalism where the mapper doesn't realize that highway
crossings are valid map data.  The damage isn't limited to highway
crossings.

I could go and revert all of his change sets but that would start other
problems.

Please Advise,
Greg
