Oh yes "simply". I'm interested in mass-reverting his edits in Iceland. Apparently the revert.pl script can be used for this. And it looks like around 60 changesets have been made by RR8 to Iceland: a...@aoeu:/tmp$ wget -q http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/iceland.osm.bz2 2009-09-02 14:22:47 (138 KB/s) - `iceland.osm.bz2' saved [4204618/4204618] a...@aoeu:/tmp$ bzgrep RR8 iceland.osm.bz2 |perl -pe 's/.*changeset="(.*?)".*/$1/' | sort | uniq | sort -n | wc -l 61 So to revert them all do I just do: 1. perl changeset.pl create (& note the id changeset.pl returns) 2. for vandal_id in $(bzgrep RR8 iceland.osm.bz2 |perl -pe 's/.*changeset="(.*?)".*/$1/' | sort | uniq | sort -n); do perl revert.pl $vandal_id $CURRENT_CHANGESET; done I.e. revert the oldest changesets first. 3. perl changeset.pl close $CURRENT_CHANGESET "Reverted edits by RR8 edits to Iceland. See OSM-talk" ? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
