In this case I don't mind, the user made only one edit with the purpose of advertising a business.
But imaging what the effect would be when you make your first edit in OSM, and are immediately called vandal. Would you continue editing ? I doubt so. IMHO The best solution in such a case is first contact the mapper and friendly point out that he/she made a mistake. That it is simply to correct this. Suggest how it can be fixed. Immediately start yelling vandalism and contacting the DWR for such a small issue is an overkill and turns aways new mappers. regards m On Thu, Oct 9, 2014 at 8:55 AM, Shawn K.
