Even the current limits make it time consuming downloading multiple areas to
cover drives in rural areas I've taken in the last month alone.

Hopefully the area isn't made s
What about not adding restrictions to the rights, but implement some
warning system?
We can use some "trust points" that are awarded for good mapping
(objects that last on the map)
Then warning points in each upload for possibly bad things (deleted
nodes, removed tags, accidentally moving many no
Hi!
First, some clarifications:
The possible measures and use limitations were only provided as an
example what can be observed and measured and what could be limited
before earning enough trust in a wat that would be much more effective
and less annoying than captchas. It was not a specific prop
implement this, but the way
the editors handle the tiger:reviewed=no tag would probably be a good
framework to build off of.

Cool, perhaps there could be a way that on the list of the 10 local mappers

There might be exponential growth in accounts opened by lurkers, bots, and
spammers but I don't think the growth in people actually editing the map i

Well it would have saved a lot of newbie questions hitting the

Agreed,
Trust points not needed.
The system in place now, which prevents vandalism, is of users all the time
always have their eyes on the map.
Unlike other websites, which bots might manage. .. we have actual people
always watching it.
The instant that new edits are made, everyone is aware of it
As osm grows the chances that somone will try to damage the map grows.
Maybe a new user should have their edits checked when they first join and
then build trust that way. Make it a random check but put the priority on
the new users. If somone does a large edit then it can be flagged to be
checked

I've put some thoughts towards preventing vandalism and spam and how
