Every larger system that allows user contributions has a "report this as
spam" button. If a few people click on that, an admin reviews and
handles this. Sounds like an obvious solution that could also work for
OSM. Not being able to report problems is frustrating to users. The
whole question of who decides what is spam and what isn't is a bit
besides the point here, isn't it? Obviously somebody is already handling
this as you mention and it works. But what would help is a nice button.

Yes, yet strangely nobody seems to want to finish off the work to implement it.

Note that the button is the easy bit really, there is much more work behind that to implement some sort of moderation queue where the information can be stored and presented to moderators.
