Cam4rd98 is an interesting character, I'll say that. He's new and enthusiastic about mapping, but doesn't quite understand the conventions of OSM. I haven't had to talk to him recently, but previously he's been unresponsive to messages.
In this case, I'd say send him a message and delete the relation. If he notices it gone, maybe he'll read his inbox for once.
