It's better not to have them than to have them the wrong way, and that
is the state of active Croatian community regarding the mapping in the
country.
Some of us are surveyors and/or GIS "users" and like to uphold to at
least some criteria for accuracy and precision.
This kind of mapping is generating problems down the line as we got
access to countrywide official state administration aerial imagery, and
plan to create countrywide efforts to map all the buildings.
Creating new buildings is much more easy than fixing someones mess.

Different people have different standards. Normally in OpenStreetMap we
don't consider data consumers but they do exist.
In Canada for example there are different levels of government and
government agencies who would like to see buildings in Canada. They are
available in different formats from a number of sources in Open Data
format with the correct licensing. However combining them with other
sources means it is more convenient for many to use OSM.
We have had people complain that buildings have been mapped with too
much detail. I'm probably guilty of using the JOSM buildings_tool to
simplify buildings and not include the bumps for garages when mapping in
Canada. Talking to the government agencies and most would be delighted
with the level of detail and accuracy you've identified rather than have
nothing.
In Africa where I also map these would be considered to be more than
acceptable compared to many buildings that are mapped there.
If you zap them what's left and is it better to have nothing than
building outline that is approximately correct?

My comment was not nice because I snapped after seeing what he/she did.
As a schooled surveyor that kind of neglect and false data is hurting
me and I have the right to be angry. Maybe to harsh language but that
data is false data.
Only one building on this map is not the same as the others:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/r3u6tow5qbc7jna/osm-Venko.png
They are copy/pasted all over the map.
This is not the first complaint I got about him/her from Croatian
community.
Croatian community does not like false data being entered just to fill
the map.

hbonger, your comment here is not very nice.

Reviewing their edits on OSMCha, most of their edits don’t look too bad

Maybe you should try being nicer to them and they might care about
the map more. Comments like yours ripple outwards and affect the
rest of the OSM project negatively.. Calling some’s edit “bullshit”
is not going to get them to draw better buildings.
Just saying - be nicer, thanks.

Hi all
Is there a way to delete buildings created by specific user?
Some users already complained about
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Venko to me for inaccurate
mapping and imaginary mapping. They wrote to him, but he didn't
reply or stop.
Here is an example on which I just stumbled:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/45.52874/15.48285&layers=N
He copy/pasted one building all over the place.
I tried to revert the changeset, but there are too many conflicts.
Any suggestions how to fix this mess?
regards, Hrvoje
