Thanks for the detective work and for persisting with this. I think it's very unlikely, however, that these users are editing OSM for a company. Probably the majority of edits in the UK are done by what you might call "lone mappers". Generally this works well and people plough their own furrows successfully, happily modifying their practice if particular issues are pointed out to them. But occasionally we have people who (perhaps because of limited social skills) find it difficult to follow established practice and co-operate with other contributors. There have been several examples in the past and I'm sure many regulars here will be aware of a few of them. That's what I think we have here. I have no knowledge as to whether Glucosamine, Dyserth and Sam888 are the same person or not - it wouldn't surprise me either way. But they/he very much fit the "uncommunicative lone mapper" model. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/Large-swaths-of-heath-in-Wales-tp5890778p5890908.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
