Hello, you've change the name on node 232172609 as can be seen by http://osm.mapki.com/history/node.php?id=232172609 . Can you explain the reason for the change?

Comment from SomeoneElse
It's actually not particularly relevant what the United Nations think. See this OSMF policy document for information: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf "The OpenStreetMap community operates under the “on the ground” principle, recording what is actually currently used in a particular area, giving preeminence to data collected insitu".
There are many name tags available in other languages allowing people to make maps in other languages. The name tag should contain the name used by people that live there now. -
