The comment seems a bit off.
Just to clarify, there are two administrative centers in Ladakh: Kargil and Leh. The previous changeset reflected this, but the Kargil (245775021) node was removed from the relation as an 'admin centre.' I’d suggest reverting the change to accurately reflect both centers. To reflect the correct information.

Thank you for clarifying why the revert was necessary. I understand that the revert tools can sometimes remove additional edits beyond the intended ones, and I appreciate you letting me know that’s why you usually try to contact contributors beforehand. I am already working on a new changeset to restore the details that were unintentionally lost during the revert.

I’m aware that the border in question is a disputed region and understand how sensitive these changes can be. My intention wasn’t to take a side or offend anyone, but simply to ensure accuracy, in fact, my only edit to the border involved merging two nodes that were very close together, purely for data cleanliness rather than altering the boundary. I now see that making any edits to such a disputed area requires extra care and consensus.

Thanks again for your guidance—your insights have been really helpful. I appreciate your help in making sure my contributions align with OSM’s best practices..

hey,
I appreciate the effort in reviewing my edits, and I acknowledge that I made a mistake regarding the international border, which I should have discussed beforehand. However, I noticed that your changeset not only reverted my edits related to the border but also removed other contributions that were unrelated to it. Additionally, some irrelevant elements were added in the process.

Could you clarify why the entire changeset was reverted instead of only addressing the border issue? Also, could you explain the specific concerns regarding the international border edit? I’d like to understand what was incorrect so I can avoid similar mistakes in the future.
Thanks.
