Re: [OSM-talk] Idea for improving mapping system
All the OSM 'leaderboard' sites I've seen are based on quantity. OSM needs more quality mappers. There's a page which tabled the number of changesets created by individual contributors per day/week/month. I believe this led to a few anal retentives quickly creating one changeset for every couple of amendments. desperate to stay a the top of the list. Not only does this speed editing create errors , it meant validation was even harder than having one changeset over a large area.

Re: [OSM-talk] Idea for improving mapping system
Out of topic content. There is discussions about being more welcoming on this list, along with being open to other communications channels. Even with that in mind, I must admit I hadn't logged in or subscribed to slack to check on the discussion while the topic may be of interest. By any means, this does not mean that the idea or discussion is not worth it, especially if volunteers are involved in such a project, and I would not request anything that would refrain them to go forward. I'm sure I will hear about it sooner or later.

+1 I'm sorry if I sound a little paranoid, but somone with an email address of little.banana.peel and calling him TheAdventurer64 and asking people to read something for which they have to log in to with a google account does not give the feel for a solid foundation for a discussion.
