I've been editing so your stats are suspect, and number of
contributors is meaningless, if all they do is fix a typo

Editors who are adding new content rather than trying to fix up the
mess created by the philosophical need to change licence would be
useful statistics.
I also expect no-one can work that out.

I did again see on OSM work which must have come from tracing Google
imagery, as Bing imagery for Ngurupai is hopeless, and anyone who
visited Ngurupai would have seen street signs, as I did, and would not
have marked any roads as "Primary".

Not sure it matters which week you're stats are still suspect, I'll
out line why below.

2 main problems with your claims, firstly you are comparing an empty
database with one that has been picked over and tweaked for years and
doesn't need such heavy lifting to be as useful as it once.

You also conveniently ignored my comment about those editing currently
in OSM-F, you should only include those doing more than typo fixes, I
suppose you'll try and hide behind "the data is public do your own
stats", but then again I'm not the one trying to show how much more
used OSM-F data is.
