Hello Saikat Maiti,
I'm trying to track down the organiser of a mapathon which resulted in lots of changesets with the hashtags "#hotosm-project-101 #valectus #mapathon #highway" on 5th October. As you've used these hashtags here I wondered if you may know? I see that you're listed as the creator of http://tasks.openstreetmap.in/project/101 so I wondered if this might be related? I'm from the Data Working Group - we've got involved because someone has reported problems with the mapping of some of these new user changes (specifically https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/63221736 , and for the avoidance of doubt I've made it very clear to the author of the first changeset discussion comment on there that is was NOT an appropriate changeset discussion comment to send to a new OSM user).
What we'd like to do is to explain to the organiser of this mapathon how to do things better next time (for example, suggest to users that they use good changeset comments, not just hashtags that will be meaningless to most mappers). If you know who that is, it'd be great if you could let us know. You can either comment here or email the DWG at data@osmfoundation.org.
Best Regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group. -

Hi Andy, your effort seems to be futile. Company mappers map and then go.

@Ryzen maybe sometimes, but we were able to get in touch with the organiser of this particular mapathon and explain things :)

@Ryzen First of all, I am not a paid mapper till now, what I contribute to OSM, completely with my personal interest and i love to do that. I helped others to organize mapathon freely and try to encourage map. I assured the Data working group that i will visit all the tasks done on the mapathon day because i care about OpenStreetMap data and it's uses.
