In the UK we have had a significant number of counter-productive edits recently, including both mistakes and vandalism. There have also been recent issues in Ireland and Iceland and probably in other places that we are not yet aware of. On talk-gb we have been discussing the merits of a creating an international list to focus on the development and use of tools and social structures to protect the database from counter-productive edits and have agreed that it would be worth setting one up.
As a result I have now set up a wiki page with the basic information about the proposed list based on these discussions. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_moderation_list So... I am now posting it on talk to get wider input... We need to agree a name and an initial brief that works well for the list. Feel free to edit the page or respond to this post as you see fit.
