Hi

They are all for the same entity.

How can we stop this annoying repetition?

1) Try and contact the user, via changeset discussion comments, note updates or similar.

if that doesn't work

2) Send an email to d...@osmfoundation.org requesting a block. We can send them a message that they have to read before continuing mapping. If they've used a throwaway email address of have no idea what OSM is, then it'll stop their garbage updates.

Note that (1) actually works in a surprisingly large number of cases (not the majority, sure, but enough to be worth trying). Also - it helps if you "be nice" when trying to contact new users, especially when they don't know what they're doing.

Best Regards,

Andy (DWG member)
