The "problematic edits" part is still current - this changeset of
mine for example is mostly about deleting buildings from mspray16:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/85452208
This is a new mapper as of just over a week ago:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mspray16
"New" - like all those other users who just happen to be named
msprayXX and produce the same
slop:https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/mapper
<https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/mapper>
But still, I suspect, a human being, and one that has no idea that what
they're doing is causing a problem.
No-one has left any changeset discussion comments
The spaghetti factories rarely answer any - better aim for the head.
In the case of spammers and vandals you're broadly correct - someone who
draws genitalia on the White House lawn is unlikely to think that
they're making a valid contribution to OSM. These mappers surely do -
no matter how bad the instructions they were given or the work they
carried out.
Best Regards,
Andy
