Being more accurate (traced from high quality imagery, versus GPS) could be a reason to prefer the former. I'm not certain about how the person in question would take this, but you'd want to be careful not to get into edit wars about this. The original person could quite easily put their more accurate ways back, and copy the names from the newer ones (since they can be CC licensed). Do we want to encourage people to delete perfectly good data because they don't like the licence? -- James
