Gregory's ServerThis week @openstreetmap is facing the largest vandal attack ever. More than 7000 accounts made too many edits defacing street and amenity names in Russia. Huge thanks to DWG, OWG, and individual mappers for dealing with this.

 @zverik giving a vandal additional airtime and exposure is not a good idea, regardless how well intended it is. @simon I'm writing on how OSM handles it and what to do if you're a consumer. And I've just removed the passage on who they might be (which was a really bad idea). So I think this is more helpful than not. |
@openstreetmap Thank you to everyone working on dealing with this. Such a pointless annoyance
