Hi. You added a string of what display here as accent markers to the name and added a name: bug key = the same string. It doesn't look right, Can you please explain this changeset to me.

Hi Tony, thanks for noticing "ᨆᨀᨔᨑ" which you can Google. If you believe the local spelling looks more right to you as "ᨆᨃᨔ" or "ᨍᨘᨇᨉ" then feel free to correct it.

Thanks. Then I presume name:bug is the closely related Buginese language. Is the Makassarese language widely enough used to justify using a bilingual "name=" instead of the official name, are the street signs bilingual for example? Most of the precedents for bilingual "name=" in OSM are when there are two official languages in the region. I presume the official name is in the language bahasa Indonesia. I note that there doesn't seem to be a consistent way to enter bilingual names in OSM, spaced hyphen, slash and a space are used.

Comment from mikecc
been there in January - haven't seen once a bilingual street sign, hotel, restaurant, airport etc. - all are in standard latin letters
took a lot of georeferenced photos for OSM
can't even remember anything obvious in the souvenir / "art" shops
- I will change the name tag in the next days when there is no real objection -

Makassar has a few street signs in the script (forgive the Google StreetView link here: https://goo.gl/maps/oQvKejzGYYN2 ) and some stylized logos / emblems
If you feel strongly about removing it then I don't plan on stopping anyone, but I don't understand
