I think this is still a question for the DWG. I agree that it would be
great to look at case from a positive perspective. In that respect, It
would have been great if they just added a poi for the business, address,
etc However, when you look at the user page,
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Cheryl%20Daly, then you see that it was
all about advertisement. Changing a street name to the person's name and
business and using the change set description as yet another form of
advertisement, http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/25304540, then you
see it was nothing more than vandalism.
The map has been fixed. Perhaps the real question for DWG is should the
person's bio page, the person's bio icon, and the change set description be
scrubbed by the DWG? Moreover, should the description say, "Removed
because of vandalism." What do you think?
Regards,
Greg
