A man named

In short, you can't stop anyone making changes, however carefully you have researched your relatives - even adding sources and notes as evidence.
Family Tree is an open-edit project and only living persons IDs and a limited number of locked (read-only) records cannot be touched. Many of us have had a similar experience to you and have learned to back-up our work elsewhere.
Try to communicate with the person in question - by the internal messaging facility. He may not reply, but it's worth trying to politely explain his errors and to ask for the evidence behind his changes.
