Hello nimat223322 and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

I'm a bit puzzled by this edit - you've said that this isn't a building any more yet has 3 levels?.

Also I don't understand why your comment above is "Ordnance Survey (c) Crown Copyright 2020. All rights reserved. Scale 1:1250"? We can't use regular Ordnance Survey maps as a source for OSM, but I'm not convinced that you have here - can you explain what you were trying to do?
Best Regards,
Andy

Just to be clear, my example above IS named with that name in the real world - I specifically checked because the name rhat had been added looks like a spreadsheet faux pas. However, that's what the sign on it says - it is definitely a "name".
If you have surveyed to check that it is not named in the real world, then reflecting that info in OSM does make sense, of course.

Some of these things really have verifiable names - way/731794606 is an example (I was surprised by that because it looks like an import error, but isn't)

Hello,
Please use better changeset comments than simply "." - use words that describe what you did and explain why.
In this case, you seem to be removing a "landuse=military" that you yourself added 3 months ago.
It is clearly not very secret, since the bus stop outside has the name "군부대앞" ("In front of the military base")
Best Regards,
Andy

Answering that:
> To be clear, the English name is Dokdo

No, it really isn't. That's just an anglicisation of the Korean name.

> I'll change that back
Please don't do that. I'm trying to sort things out on behalf of the Data Working Group (see changeset/174912300 ) so that (a) the fact that these islands are under Korean control is recognised in OSM and (b) everyone who has other ways of describing them can use those too.

> OpenStreetMap information should be based on data from the country that is in effective control

No, that is incorrect. See https://osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf for details.

(for international readers, that comment above translates as "That's not the official name. Dokdo is currently under the effective control of the Republic of Korea, but the South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs doesn't use names like "Riancourt Rocks." To be clear, the English name is Dokdo. I'll change that back. OpenStreetMap information should be based on data from the country that is in effective control.")
