OpenStreetMap
I have been making my first steps, apparently being the first one to map at the island of Pantelleria. At least I see no other data except the coastline imported from somewhere.
That brings me to my first problem: The coastline has some kind of triangular inland pond that doesn't exist in reality and happens to overlap with the local castle. I can't get rid of this "pond"; every time I try to delete it, upload of the change fails. Any hints on what to do here?

The coastlines are done as a separate process, you'll have to wait a while before your changes to the coast polygon are propagated to the slippy map.
Here's some more info

After deleting (and undeleting) lines, I often lose connection to the database when working with Potlatch. Then I have to click the red triangle two or three times in order to get connected again. This might serve a protection against vandalism.
There are still some nice GPX tracks which have not been edited so far.

use JOSM, it's more clear what it really does with the data IMHO.

What I often do with stubborn ways is to first remove all their tags, then remove all but the last two points, then shift the focus somewhere else to get the changes to save. Then, once that happens, I delete the rest of the points.

Well, I am using JOSM. My problem is not getting the change rendered or to actually delete it, but to upload that change to the server. When I try, transfer takes a loooong time then aborts with a message about "Bad request".
