Thanks for that deeper analysis Colm, yes, if you know this person it's better if you make contact, and yes, I agree, trojan work done by this mapper.
I used the analytics tool here - http://osm-analytics.org/#/ To mitigate against this in the future and to get the most out of the tasks, it might be worthwhile putting together a more descriptive set of instructions for the tasks which should change the stats from 90% "yes" to less than 10% as "yes". Later on we could utilise maproulette to create a challenge to further refine the tagging on those buildings mapped as "yes".
