Is this imported data from Geonames? If so, please delete it again. Geonames is a secondary source deriving much of its data from copyrighted sources. Therefore this should not be going into OSM. See:

Beg your pardon. I see from your earlier diary entry that you have verified the source of the data as GNS.
