That's what I did.
I first sent him a message telling him that he was doing wrong edits. He 
answered me once and told me he was actually copying a scanned map.
So I answered back explaining why he should not do that, that was eight days 
ago and to this day I've had no more answers.
I've sent him another message two days ago telling him that his edits might 
be removed due to copyright problem if he did not clarify the situation.

As adviced by Andy, I've sent a mail to the osmfoundation explaining the 
situation.
