There isn't a lot of point shouting at the mailing list about this. Looking
at the area I see quite a number of different editors, most of which appear
to have done only a few edits or indeed are new (the first example you gave
is from a mapper who only signed up to the project in the last few weeks).
Since there are so many mappers, have you considered contacting them all for
a social meet-up? Usually issues of editing, especially for new
contributors, are easily fixed by offering a bit of assistance.

If a meet-up isn't on, then at least drop these new folks an email and offer
some help.

Cheers

Andy
