I hope it's the same as in the code of conduit
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct
quote "Generally, this policy covers all edits where changes are made to 
objects in the database without review individually by the person 
controlling the edits."
for if you review those objet one by one, it's not an automated edit
if you clic "fix all" without review, it's an automated edtit

> Does any import of open data meet your definition?

I was going to say "obviously not" but the conduit code classifies 
imports into mechanical editions
quote "This includes:
     data imports"
