You stated,  "It is not OK to remove names for political reasons. It is also not OK to refer to other mappers as "foreign users" as a perjorative when they are apparently mapping from survey (which is I suspect is more than you have ever done here)." This is not true, as the mapper above stated he added the data as "Survey" while the data he added are not on the ground! example, way 1193549241 deleted in this changeset, I bet you to get me a picture with this inscription, Also I have been here and surveyed the area tens of times so you should not assume or "suspect" before asking, you could've just asked for reasons before taking a side.     
You said "It is not OK to remove names for political reasons.", I reverted his changesets in full as they are problematic, you, you Andy, did the same exact thing and reverted all of the changesets by problematic mappers in such subject areas, You used the same changeset comment I did, and reverted them in the same way. We have lost +800 and over 25k injuries in our 2019 protest that went out against the government and the foreign influence in the gov, and such edits that add an Iranian general name to the map are very provocative to the Iraqi people, and I'm not gonna watch and letting such provocative edits make us lose another life. And even though, We in OSM Iraq agreed to remove graves from cemeteries to prevent spam, his cemetery has 6 million graves, if we let some, the floodgate will be open, I assume you can see the deep history of nodes inside the cemetery and you will see how spam it is, therefore our community decided to remove such graves which are usually added with wrong tags like tourist attractions, place of worship, campsite, etc.. these are usually added by maps me users, you can learn more here in the comment I explained it to another user: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/139229519
Regarding the name tag that was removed from way, you said on OSM Telegram group this ""removing languages entirely" is perfectly OK if that language isn't actually present - translations (and transliterations, except in very unusual situations) don't belong in OSM." then followed up with "By looking at the name on the sign?  A translation to e.g. Japanese won't help them if there is no Japanese sign" and "If it's verifiable the name should stay; if it isn't it shouldn't."  The name tag that was removed from way 966067085 by the revert process, is not on the ground and was just a translation.    
Regarding our community, you stated, "While mappers from any community should use some private channel and not one that is open to all is discriminatory.", this is wrong, our community group is OPEN and PUBLIC to all, and you can read messages without signing up for Telegram, and it was authorized by Sören 2 years ago and added to the OSM wiki list. We stated the edits of this mapper in the group and only got support to revert, no one was against it. This same user "ChehrehBargi" did the same thing, and was contacted by me and other mappers here in OSM via private chats trying to explain to him that it is no okay to map like that, and I told him to discuss the matter with our local community to speak with hundreds of Iraqis, he refused and went in OSM Iran, when all were against him! and even the Admin told him to stop this type of edits. The user had the opportunity to discuss it with the community and he denied it, probably because he know the community won't accept such edits.      
Regards.
