I suspect he was just being nice and overcommitting in the process .
(as you can see that was a long time back). My edit was based on asking
the admins when I made the change (current and not dreamt up).

Actually it was Grant Slater who added the text 'Admins do read this
page, but please be patient it may take a few days'.

Typically the fastest way to get a (OSM) user account removed is to
point the spam nature of the account out on #osm-dev

 Adding the warning on the page was calculated to set the expectations
 right, obviously we need to resort to more drastic measures, what
 about

 ADMINS HAVE NEVER READ THIS PAGE. ADDING ENTRIES TO THIS PAGE DOES
 EXACTLY NOTHING

Hi,

I've updated the three last sections with what I believe are currently 
the most effective ways of dealing with spam in those areas.  For a bit 
more background on the work in progress on the third of these see 
https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/841 and 
https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/1576 but 
please note that this is a highly technical discussion of a work in 
progress; pitching into github just with comments such as "we need to do 
something about spam!!!" would be extremely unhelpful :)


Best Regards,

Andy (from the DWG, who deal with the first 2 of the 3 categories)
