Russian–Ukrainian war

• Ukrainian community is against mass-removal of name:ru tags. It is clearly a vandalism
• Since the active phase of the war started, there were several users who mass-removed things. DWG found over 7000 accounts linked just to one person. There were others, though not at this scale.
• The Ukrainian community had a hard hit in the sense that number of mappers has significantly dropped. At some periods, there was close to no human presence on OSM.
• All recent attempts to mass-remove things are reported to DWG once we learn about them
• Old edits are difficult to revert
• Automated edits must be discussed in the community, but that is not always followed by individuals

Could this be documented on the Wiki page “Russian-Ukrainian War”?
