Thanks for that.  However, they've edited again (changeset 22576684), 
it's obviously just doodles, and I've reverted it (changeset 22683892).


Cheers,

Andy

Hi all

I write a message to him to remind him OpenStreetMap is not place for
random drawing in Chinese.

Waiting for his response

I notice three more changesets from them have contributed doodles near 
Bremen:


http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/280211805 


http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/280212912

I've sent them a (hopefully friendly) message suggesting that the live 
planet at osm.org isn't really the place for tests like this. That 
message was in English, so there's every chance that they might not be 
able to understand it.


Would anyone who has any knowledge of Chinese perhaps be able to put a 
suitable message together and send it to them?


Cheers,

Andy

This service road still seems to be on the Bing imagery:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/200271054/history

It was deleted by that user 8 months ago.  That suggests a "changeset 
revert" rather than a "doodle removal" might be in order.

Yes, you can remove the scribbles without permission.

Send the contributor a nice note, be sure to presume good faith.
Consider the post I made to talk-us a while back.

Is it possible that this editor doesn't realize that their changes go
straight into the live map? Do we have a Chinese (either one or both)
speaker "on staff" to talk to them?
