Kretzer
coming back to this subject. A story from behind the scene.
This remembers me a new contributor for Ebola that nearly entered in an edit
war. He was contacted. This ended-up that he was a very motivated teenager. His
parents helped him and he his now in the top list of the Ebola contributors !

Objet : Re: [HOT] limit validation to experienced users
Makes sense to me ...
In task #1018 there seems to be a user with little experience and lots of
confidence invalidating dozens of tiles, arguing that "every individual
structure needs to be traced".
The person even entered in a kind if edit war with maning. I really feel this
is a waste of precious time.
In this tasks there are very specific instructions on how to validate (which is
a very good idea!).
They do clearly say that the major highways need to be there, not all the
highways.
I guess the goal is to get the relevant structures as quickly as possible. That
kind of nitpicking seems to be just slowing the job.
