Well spotted ddixon, some of those edits seem like clear "he he, you can change wikipedia to say what you like" edits. There have just been some accidental deletes in Canada and it seems like the way to deal with them is manually.

Can you manage to put everything back? Please post the mailing list how the users respond. If there is no response and there are more edits (or your corrections get put back) then a block is likely needed, which can be done through OSM Foundation people (or at least they know who does it). Hopefully once the stuff is put back then the users will either contribute responsibly or move on to troll elsewhere.
