... largely by restricting the use of dumb automated tools and by
actually _having_ an "Automated Edits code of conduct".
That doesn't mean that we should stop someone changing e.g.
"highway=pirmary" to "highway=primary", and if someone says "I want my
highway=pirmary leaving as they are" I'm sure the rest of their local
OSM community will point out the error of their ways.
It does mean that tagfiddling between e.g. "contact:phone" and "phone"
(or vice versa) when both are in use is probably unhelpful.
Best Regards,
Andy
