Hi Felix,

My bad for not giving a background on the data. Those data were collected
using WiGLE and then imported into the database. I'm really sorry for not
catching them on my end. I didn't check my data for errors then.

If I'm not mistaken, the data timestamps that are before 2012 were
rewritten to reflect the day of the upload instead of the actual dates they
had on WiGLE.

If I may propose a solution, would it be possible to remove all the uploads
in my name (rukku), then I will just send a new dump of the my data
(checked for errors this time) to be uploaded to the system. What do you
think?

I don't really use the Mozilla Stumbler for data collection right now as
I'm not comfortable with not having a dump of data I collected (correct me
if I'm wrong, I'm under the impression that MLS won't allow me to export
the data that I contributed). I'd run both WiGLE and Mozilla at the same
time if I can but my phone can't handle it right now so I'm sticking with
WiGLE for now. I just contribute my dumps to MLS when I can.
