Are you done the revert yet? I got a message from:
lesc <https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/lesc>
"Hi,
It looks like some changes in Kanata you did removed all the lines that
represent buildings and only the corners are left as points.
Thanks, Les"
Seems like your reverting is messing up data and others are noticing. It's
been 2 days now...should it not have completed by now?
I've told him to direct his inquiries to you as you are the one in charge
of the mass revert.
