Hi! I can see you’re editing one node, a village with alt_name and without name. What are you trying to achieve? Do you need help or advice?

Your node
alt_name=Istanbul pcode=NA-3807-N10-003 place=village
is in the middle of an unoccupied area should it be deleted? No village there and certainly not Istanbul If you explain in a bit more detail what you want to do maybe we can help. Regards

On reflection I can see now you have edited the node.

You’ve removed the tags website=http://ayna.org and source=UNDP_2006 and name=Istanbul

Is that what you intended to do? Regards

Hi, “yep then i deleted” Not quite, I can see you have now removed the last three tags but the node is still there.

Please say why you want to delete the place node? It was mapped on 19/08/2011 by account HOT Somalia Import (Non-PD) The place was obviously mapped for a reason by the Special account for Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team import for Somalia during the 2011 Horn of Africa famine crisis.

I would have thought that if it is doing no harm, you don’t know why it was mapped and you have no reason to delete it then leave it alone.

I have reverted your edits to this node. http://osm.mapki.com/history/node.php?id=1404225073 All fine again now. If you want to improve the map in your region, feel free to ask for help!
