Firstly, I’m not sure what exactly involving a wider community will accomplish. Ultimately, I’ll be presenting the same facts to them that I’ve already shared with you. The outcome will likely come down to who can convince more people, which doesn’t necessarily guarantee the solution is the right one. This issue should be about objective accuracy, not persuasion, and I believe the facts should lead the way, not the majority opinion.

Additionally, as I live in the area of the dispute, my understanding of the situation is more grounded in real experience. My opinion is backed by evidence and facts, which gives it a level of authenticity that an outsider, unfamiliar with the local context, may not fully grasp. While I do see value in external perspectives when they are based on the same factual information, the direct experience I have makes my position particularly relevant.

Finally, labeling me and the other as "part of the problem" without offering any real argument only shifts the focus away from solving the issue. I’m not here to claim superiority or insist on being “right.” My goal is simply to find a practical solution. Focusing on who is right or wrong won’t move us forward—it will only prolong the conflict.

>I suggested discussing opening in the forum, where everyone can see it.

If you mean by everyone the Iraqi community, then I'm here to tell you there is no such thing, there is no "everyone". If I can get you to understand this I'll die a happy man; the only person who can solve any dispute of any sort in iraq is the mods, they have to look at the facts presented and take a decision based on them and decidr who's right and who's wrong, anything other than that is a waste of time and energy, respectfully.

I know this defeats the purpose of OpenStreetMap by not involving the community, but till we have a real community, we only have this option.

I have explained this a million times before. Please do me a favor and read the last email on Ticket#2024070410000292. If you are still not convinced, then I believe nothing will convince you.

Hello Mohamed_Taha

I did not realise the mess I caused in osm.org/changeset/159144873
so I proceed to revert your changes, but I realised and fixed it here:
osm.org/changeset/159300267

I apologize for that, and thank you for improving the map of Iraq.
