No. It's far better to assume good faith until proven otherwise. Be
nice, contact the user, ask if they realised what was going on, help
them to fix it, encourage them to keep mapping and be careful and so
on. If they ask for help, someone can revert their changeset.

It's very rare for the vandalism to be deliberate, and you can't
really tell the difference between that and a mistake until you talk
to the person concerned. Aggressively reverting mistakes will just
lead to bad feelings and doesn't help build our community.

Cheers,
Andy
