does osm have the ability to present multiple views of the

(effectively) put in two (or more) places/views, and when such a
region is requested, the user should be forced to choose which
view of the region they wish to see.
This is all very nice, but what happens when the user then deletes all the Turkish names from the Turkish views as well? We can perhaps try to explain our reasoning as to why openstreetmap does not get involved in petty political disputes over borders and try to persuade them that way, and banning is going to be sufficiently difficult that this is worth investing effort into.
But if we get people a tenth as insane as edit Wikipedia articles for political purposes, reason isn't going to work.
