Andy,
It appears from an audit that there's been a modest amount of
editing,and mechanical copying of the trees affected by
the original import. In the UK that import was reverted, but
worldwide it is messier. The denotation=cluster tag itself is
problematic at best,
and better methods of finding tree clusters have been demonstrated.
Thus it really seems that the most pragmatic choice is
a wholesale purge of the cluster value, and a selective (no touching
manual mapping) purge of the fixme.
I can certainly see arguments for that (I was around at the time the tag
was introduced and never exactly understood what "denotation=cluster"
was supposed to be for), but suspect that a consultation with some of
the other mappers using it since would make sense.
If you're getting rid of _all_ "denotation=cluster" worldwide then the
wiki page that currently says "This was a mechanical edit based on
proximity to other trees." needs changing.
Limiting the purge to the nodes last touched by user Nop would,
unfortunately, be half baked. The cluster value was created by Nop
out of a disagreement with the concept of mapping individual trees.
The problem spread from there.
Well if the aim was to just undo the original mechanical edits that
would of course still be an option - not by looking at " node last
touched by" but by looking at the node lists from the original
mechanical edit changesets.
Cheers,
Andy
