Further to this, for those that aren't aware, there is this 'commit' on

I have to say that I too am very unhappy about these “automatic “ messages
being sent out in my name. I have got 6 of them in my messages at this very
moment from other validators. They bear no resemblance to the kind of message I

For me validating, I see three situations:
1) The work is bad or the tile is not fully mapped: --> I invalidate. I
always invalidate with a comment and I think everybody does it like this

the tile is validated within a day or so and the project has 95% of the

Hi John,
One of the main feedback items we got was that people received no
notifications of when their work was validated so that is why we

These are meaningless and I think they should be stopped as quickly as
possible.
I apologise to any mappers that have received these as part of my

Tasking manager. Not one I wrote ! I received similar messages from
validators on my tasks."

"Hi Johnwhelan I just validated your mapping on Task 14. Awesome work! Keep
mapping :)"
Once maybe but seven identical messages this morning other than the task
number? These are coming in daily from different people and I'm not happy
to receive them. Combined with these come to my email
