You can view notes on the OSM website, no need to go into the iD Editor. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes#Viewing_notes under Map Layers > Map Notes. I've closed that note last night so it might not show up, they show up green when resolved for a short time after, then they'll automatically disappear, all documented at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes#Resolving_notes > Notes are marked as resolved, not removed or deleted, with the data being retained for future reference. However, once resolved notes have aged for a small while, they no longer appear on the map view. The data working group can hide notes so they won't appear at all, but this will be done for reasons outside normal editing and mapping; e.g., notes that are insulting to people, or that contain sensitive/confidential information.
