Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked OSM node history and changeset to understand the reported MAPS.ME tagging risk. Then determine whether the warning belongs in MapRoulette itself, in challenge configuration, or both; the issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Done requires an agreed warning behavior and a defined way to verify it.

Description
See http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4697076691/history and http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/52817169 . Here a MAPS.ME-added "embassy" had some extra tags added to it by a well-meaning mapper, but unfortunately "embassy" is one of those tags that MAPS.ME users tend to use for personal markers. In this case basic QA was not done and the embassy was "made to look legitimate" by a Maproulette edit.
A solution here could either be within Maproulette itself (e.g. warning of the dangers of editing in areas with which the mapper is not familiar) or on a challenge by challenge basis, or both.
