Anyone familiar with these places in WA to fix some of this mappers tags.

shop=dry_cleaning appears to be a booming business to me.
Also adding odd characters at end of names and parts of names in lower case

I'd suggest adding a changeset discussion comment to e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4285737789 saying "that looks like a winery, not a dry cleaning shop" (obviously pad the message out politely saying that OSM isn't a place for personal notes etc. etc.). Although I presume they're a Chinese tourist they're in, or planning to visit, WA so I guess they may have a bit of English.

The UI in MAPS.ME is pretty confusing. If you don't know what OSM is, then it's not clear that you're updating a public database at all. The notes UI in there is similar (see https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/3712 ), but the MAPS.ME developers are apparently looking at that.

What I've done with similar users in Europe is (in the first instance) tried to communicate and then if that fails (which it does some, but not all, of the time) revert all the problematic changesets by that user.

Cheers,

Andy
