Dear user 1234Admin,

I’m afraid there are a number of issues with your recent contributions to OpenStreetMap.

Firstly, when you upload an edit there is room for a “changeset comment” that explains your edit. This is a comment that is intended for humans to read and understand. Hashtags can be used in addition to a human-readable text but they do not replace it. “#hotosm-project-11845#uniquemappersteam #uniquemappersteam2021 #uniquemappersnetwork #OSMNIgeria #Youthmappers #VictorNSunday #Citizenscience5 #NigeriaFloods2021” is not a sufficient changeset comment because it does not tell anyone what you were actually intending. See osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments for more on changeset comments.

Secondly, your edits have many technical problems, mostly because you are duplicating data that is already there, creating many overlapping buildings. Also many of your changesets cover a huge area because you are adding objects in different countries at the same time. Other mappers have to use their volunteer time to clean up after you. Please let someone explain to you how to contribute properly.

Thirdly, other mappers have written comments about your edits which you are expected to read and to reply to, but it appears that you have done neither. See https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=8882856 for an overview of comments that other mappers have added to your changes.

This message blocks your account until you have read it; you can continue mapping afterwards. However, please follow the advice I have given here and ensure that your future contributions are correct, otherwise we might have to block your account for a longer period.

Best regards
Frederik Ramm
