Dear user snarkyclarky,

you have added an astonishing number of buildings in a very short time - in fact such a short time that it is not humanely possibly for you to have verified the information you were putting in. This means you’re leaving the envelope of mapping and doing data imports. While not forbidden outright, importing data (such as Microsoft building footprints with the help of RapID) is subject to guidelines that require proper documentation and prior discussion of your plans with the community.

Some grave errors in your recent import - way/985667435 (two buildings mapped with a single outline), way/985658832 (a travel trailer mapped as a building), or way/985650914 (a building outline with numerous bizarre angles) - make it obvious that no human review has taken place.

Read more about the topic here: osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines

We will likely have to remove the imported buildings again. Please do not continue these undiscussed mass imports.

Thank you
