[OSM-talk] DWG survey on organised editing

[john whelan]

Having just witnessed  a major screw up by a local University who didn't
understand how we do things and managed to both mess up the map and the 150
student assignments a wiki community written guideline would be a good
start.

The intentions were good but the impact wasn't for both sides and it would
be nice to avoid similar situations in future.

Perhaps something in learnOSM or a pointer in there.  Make it easy to find
for those who are thinking of giving students an assignment especially if
it will count towards their final grade.

Thanks John
