Comment from Colin Smale
Hi.... In what way was the previous boundary incomplete? Where did you get this boundary from? Yours doesn't align with surrounding boundaries, nor does it look very accurate. Any reason why I shouldn't revert this change?

8077445, v6 appeared as a relation that was not a complete boundary having only demarcated part of the east border. This current boundary was pulled from an existing way (104882557) with a node added as a label (690188382). No changes positions to existing ways or nodes was made.

I see your new boundary is based on a roughly-drawn "place" boundary which is not the same as an admin boundary (in the UK). Sorry, but the previous admin boundary actually looks correct.... would you revert this please? If you like we can look at it together if you are convinced there is a problem. Thanks!

Thanks for reverting, Tym. The boundary / relation looks fine to me.

Oh course, going through reverting the other changes as well. If there's anything I've reverted incorrectly please do point it out so I can go back again or feel free to revert my changes - whichever is easier. I will go back through your document and others and further my understanding of boundaries - obviously off base on these changes. Thanks for catching them.

You're welcome, and thanks for being a lot more reasonable about it than many people would be! I would recommend leaving the UK boundaries alone, as they are well-covered by data directly derived from the legal boundaries, which are not always "intuitive" but they are nonetheless correct! If you see something anomalous concerning UK boundaries feel free to contact me directly and I will do my best to explain or fix it up! Cheers, Colin

Not a problem and greatly appreciate the help; I may take you up on the explanation offer in the future if I remain confused, but will leave them be either way! Thank you again.
