Violations of Import/Guidelines and Organised Editing Guidelines

Following is just limited examples, Rocketdata.io is known for repeated violation of OSM rules.

• https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/92569121 They admitted to doing this because "client demanded immediate edit so we were forced to do activate it"
• After edit was reverted, company employee partially did it from other brand new account in attempt to hide their involvement
• https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/104318100 - ignored feedback from community, damaged data. Was reverted.
• Constant removing of important data and disregarding other people's comments:
  • They always ask Polish community, but apparently not reading the answer
  • Saying they are going to update only opening hours: https://i.postimg.cc/nhpyCsSY/Rocketdata.png
  • This is what they did: https://i.postimg.cc/prPfDtw7/Rocketdata2.png removed top-level tag, changed website from the proper one to a general one, removed important information from opening_hours
  • This was done three times, three times they asked on the Polish forum, three time they got the answer that it was wrong and this change wasn't approved, changeset was reverted, after two months the same story again.
• Despite clear warnings like https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/4746 ignored Organised Editing Guidelines
  • For example "linking to the wikipage from all user profiles" (kate_rocketdata linked to OSM Wiki page about organized editing only after being blocked the first, second and the third time)
