In the area of mitrovia which we have been discussing :

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/448562189 here he changed the
main name to Cyrillic .

Administrative circumstances around the railways in northern Kosovo are a bit difficult. The northern part up to Zvecan is (or at least was in 2009 when I visited Kosovo) under Serbian railways rule. Mitrovicë is the first station under Kosovo railways rule. Because of the Serbian railways controlling the northern part, Kosovo railways has banned all rail travel between Mitrovicë and Zvecan.

I have a picture of the station building at Zvecan. I also discintly remember Serbian flags on the building. This was for all intents and purposes a Serbian railway station. The picture below shows the cyrillic name first. Also note the sign Zeleznice Srbije.

It would be logical that the stations north of Zvecan (like Stanica Valač) would show the same naming but I don't have a picture of that. Mitrovicë is here <http://www.maasluip.nl/trein/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=1357> and it shows the name as Mitrovicë/Mitrovica.

I only travelled the railroad (and a small part between Zvecan and Mitrovicë by bus), so I can not comment on roadsigns.

Maarten

Do you mean you have written to DWG but not received a response, or do you
mean you have not yet figured out how to write to DWG?

What is the "on-the-ground" situation for a way like this

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/26490987/history

- would the sign on the ground say "Омладинских бригада", or would it say
"Omladinskih brigada"?

If the former, then the user is right in setting "name" but should have kept
"Omladinskih brigada" as an alternative name. If the latter, then the change
is wrong outright.

Bye
Frederik
