[Talk-us] Change sets covering entire US?

[Tod Fitch]

Change set 113500241 [1] showed up in my RSS feed today. I have mixed feelings about adding name:en=* values for all cities in the US but I guess it makes some sense.

But I really don’t like that this change set and change set 113500319 [2] cover multiple states. Both changes (and a third that just is for Los Angeles [3]) are by a user with very few edits [4] who I suspect is not located in the US. I made a comment on the first change set as it modified the city I live in.

What is should our response be to change sets that touch a large number of objects across the entire US? At the least I would prefer that the geographical extent of each change set be for more limited. Am I just being too sensitive?

Thoughts?
