This is new information, ie the way that was originally here now has a
bridge, roundabout, whatever, in the middle and is composed of the two
ways either side of it. It's not as Nick suggest that the original
information is changed in it's entirety only certain sections that are
new info and hardly the fault of the person editing as it's part of the
way osm works.

Some people just don't subscribe to the mailing lists and so are
unlikely to receive the information that these edits will be lost.

However some decliner edits will affect your work.
If you look at the intersection of Leichardt Avenue
and Amity Drive. It seems that you mapped this area well,
in 2007. Then in 2009 the user JohnSmith and also Rosscoe have
made minor improvements and "tweaks". This has, in a lot of
cases ended up with them being version1 "owners" of the roads
you mapped.
Impossible for either to be version one owners if we edited existing
data. It could only be for new information added.
