    What is the best way to correct this, so that all other langauge
    pages got the correction as well?


I'm not aware of any other way than correcting it on each page. I've just done this and also added a note that this tag lacks verifiability.


In June 2013, the notes help page was saying
Leave a short message on the map if something is missing or obviously wrong, like "oneway in wrong direction"...
I made a correction in English, French and Russian and asked the linguists to translate it to other languages.
I suggested _thinking twice_ to the persons who write notes as follows:
Leave a short message on the map if something is missing or obviously wrong, like "oneway goes northbound" or "bridge or level_crossing?". These reports can be processed by map editors. Add the message understandably and thoughtfully, e.g. not "oneway in wrong direction" because someone could have flipped the direction before the note is read.
I see that, English people are requested to stop _thinking twice_ because, as it often happens to what one does for OSM, that advice has been removed from the English version, that French and Russian people must continue to think twice because the text remained and that German people and probably others were always requested to continue making errors because the text never changed:
Gib einen kurzen Hinweis auf der Karte, wenn etwas fehlt oder falsch ist, z.B. ein "*Einbahn in der falschen Richtung*" ...
Removal happened to other corrections I made, that's the way OSM goes.
I hope I have answered your question, Eugene.

All the best,

André.
