Another option would be to allow each of us to create our own "canned"
response.

A quick count shows something like 300,000+ edits by new mappers in 2017.
That would also include import accounts created in 2017 which inflates the
number. But it's still a large number. Ideally we would review more edits
by new mappers to help them get up to speed and offer words of
encouragement. Having tools like OSMCha really help. I've started employing
OSMCha late last year and find it helpful, especially being able to see
what was deleted.

Stefan - Thank you for offering a suggestion on how OSMCha can be improved.

Best,
Clifford
