I think the problem has been resolved.  There was a misunderstanding on
which tags should be used for which values.

Strangely enough bus stops and bus routes are quite specialised and it
isn't always apparent how they should be tagged especially with the newer
platform tags.

changeset comments?
Have you commented in their
changeset with explanation that it is a problem?

Can you link such changeset comments?___

Quality assurance (QA). It helps more experienced mappers to see where
new people add things.
If they spot mistakes, they should engage in a friendly conversation
via private messages or changeset comments.
Being friendly is not always easy, so sometimes messages can be too rude.
And there are people that simply do not engage in conversations, which
is often understandable, as there are so many people that make a few
edits and disappear forever.
Other people are overly protective of "their" area, and change
everything to the way they want, which is not really desirable.

In general, those tools are used to follow edits in an area, not for
following individuals.

As Warin pointed out, try to start a conversation with the other
mapper, or the local community to find out why he is changing
everything you edit.
If all else fail, you can contact the DWG, they can e.g. block the
other mapper until he reads a certain message.

Good luck (and hope you are not too disappointed in OSM due to the
behaviour of 1 individual).

There are lots of tools to find things in OSM.
I use some of them to find my own errors!
They might be used to find out who changed something.
What each is intended for may not be all it can be used for.
 

I find somebody is following my every changeset I add, and delete's or 
re edits it his way,

to match the other edits he has done of the same type.


Have you placed comments on the changeset that deleted your entry?
Have you placed comments on the changeset that altered your entry?

These are publicly viewable. If they fail to respond there are further steps 
that can be taken.

Impossible for me form an opinion as to which of you could be more correct that 
the other, sometimes it is a matter of view point.



I too follow some mappers..

For example one mapper saw anything going under a bridge as also being in a 
tunnel and started to add tags for tunnels to all objects going under any 
bridge.
They also did other things that were not, in my view, right. And yes I placed 
changeset comments on there entries. Never had a response from them.
Other people have also placed comments on there entries too.. still no response.

So I keep a watchful eye on these mappers from time to time.
