Comment from SomeoneElse
You say in your changeset comment that "Name is supposed to be the legal name", but strictly speaking the actual OSM position is as set out in
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf - it's not that straightforward. Exactly this edit has been reverted before - see http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/33865373 and http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/36656564 for the reasoning given there. You've made this edit before and it has been changed back - please don't engage in tit-for-tat editing like this. It's true that having "two names in one" is less than ideal, but it's pretty much the least worst option we have in OSM right now.
