The idea being that the next time the user logs in they are presented with a message to the extent that there has been some concern over their edits, with some kind of explanation of what they have done and a offer of assistance. And a warning that further unwarranted edits might lead to further action and an Agree and Continue button.
If further edits are still not productive then we would have a clear audit of a warning being issues and assistance being offered. Cheers Chris _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
