Hmmm... I thought it was a matter of old-style tagging vs. new-style tagging. Now I understand. If you see such mistakes on my edits elsewhere, could you please revert these specific tags?

Btw, I do not know how to bot-add anything ;) I am not an IT guy

There are several countries with various official languages. They usually choose one language on OSM. Look at India (they chose English), at Belarus (they recently switched from Russian to Belarusian), etc.

1) I am not trying to wipe out Russian and I did not delete any Russian description nor name. Please refrain from accusing me of stuff I never said nor did. I put Russian names in name:ru, where they belong out of the territory of the Russian Federation. I do not delete them and what I'm doing does NOT wipe out Russian. It just makes the map more readable for various language users.
2) All that long text was in the "name" tag. As you wrote on your own, it is not a name, it is a description. Moreover, a name=* tag in Russian on the territory of China is absurd, don't you think?
3) I do investigate before putting names. Btw, thanks to that, I discover sometimes that some names have changed since the last time someone edited this or that part of the map.
4) In the case of the descriptions we are talking about, automatized translations are still much better than nothing at all. Someone who speaks this or that language better will be able to correct it. Anyway, in the vast majority of cases, I usually use translators only for transliterations into Latin alphabet (which I put in int_name).
5) If the nodes are at national borders, I always put the languages of all the countries it touches.
6) If the nodes are close to national borders, I also try to put all languages, but with the language(s) of the country in question in name:* and the other names in name:xx=*

Hope I am explaining my main aims clearly enough.

Not vandalizing anything! ...
Moreover, if you see a mistake, it would be good to show me the place itself and not the changeset.

Don't ask me, ask the original author of the previous changes what they meant in Russian ... and why they put that in the "name" tags instead of "Description".

Hello. Who told you these are automatic translations?... Which name(s) are you referring to ?
Otherwise, it is still better to have them than to leave everything solely in the 2nd language of the country...

Ahhh, you already did that! Thanks a loooot

Oho ... If I did the whole border line with this mistake, it's going to take me quite a bit of time ...............

Hello. Thanks for highlighting this. As I can't see where I made that mistake, could you fix that for me, please?
Thanks a bunch!

Hello: I do not understand why Ihareg changed the part around road R36. These changes should be reverted. There are 2 places where before the war you could drive legally through Ukrainian territory. One of these parts is even on Mapillary pics. Can you revert at least this part, please?

I see. In reality, I changed the highway tag because some people (as myself) plan their trips also "visually". It is a way of marking clearly, that currently it is not possible to travel that way and not to even try. Especially given the fact some of these roads are destroyed.
I am wondering if we shouldn't mark temporarily those border checkpoints as "landuse=military"

128909553 over 2 years ago

Oh, O.K. So you mean it was sufficient for me to add the "access=no" tag?

Ясно. Тогда извиняюсь

Привет. Я теперь увидел, что они асфальтировали часть эти дороги, но если смотреть по Maxar, ещё осталось чють-чють без асфальта.
Наверно ты там проехал недавно?

Hello,

If I have to be honest with you, after reading what you sent me, I can't understand what I did wrong. I didn't copy any other tags than the name=* tags for water areas

{{vote|yes}} I approve this proposal.Каментар (Jay May) -- Нет ничего более ужасного, чем ввести туриста в заблуждение (даже из России): поехать в Беларусь, посетить города, где топонимы на белорусском языке (названия улиц, станций метро и т.д.) и не понять, почему вместо «Октябрьская» (как на карте) стоит напис «Кастрычніцкая» (на месте) которого в картах нет (другие варианты - "Большие" и "Вялікае", итп.). Очень давно это должно было быть изменено! Даже ЯндексКарты показывают основной тег name=* на белорусском языке!

It depends what you are referring to.
1) The Nida / Morskoje border checkpoint has been closed since 2020, so no access to anyone.
2) At the end of Nida, you can see a no-entry sign, which I interpreted as "closed for motor vehicles, but not to pedestrians". There was no other sign, whatsoever like the famous yellow "valstybės sienos apsaugos zona", which would mean "no entry for anyone" . But perhaps you are right to point it means that road is technically also forbidden for cyclists.

Thanks a bunch! ;)

Ooops
Yes, definitely name:pl
That is what happens when you switch too quickly between French and Polish keyboards :D :D :D
Can you correct it for me, please? ;)
