In 2010 acrosscanadatrails imported Aboriginal reserves. An example is http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1016901 These are viewable all the way out to z4. I propose removing these for a few reasons. 1. From what I’ve seen, no one has edited these to improve them. 2. Acrosscanadatrails has not agreed to the CTs. He has indicated his contributions are public domain, so the data could be downloaded and reimported, but I do not believe that should be done.
This is the only of your four points that I see as a good reason to delete data. Once we start deleting non-ct data it will need to be deleted or re-imported. If your going around and deleting data from non-ct acceptors I wouldn't let the public domain declaration stop you from deleting Sam's data at the same time.
We don't normally delete (imported or otherwise) with questionable tagging then we fix the tagging. However I wouldn't want to see anyone importing more of these boundaries until the tagging issues are sorted out.
3. The tagging is questionable, with two FIXMEs. They are tagged with admin_level=4, the same as provinces, which misrepresents their importance. 4. The tagging for aboriginal lands is not settled. See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:boundary#First_Nations for some discussion. Although this shouldn’t stop people from mapping them, I believe it should stop them from being imported.
