15053	Say how to delete objects from OPENSTREETMAP, not just how to delete from a LAYER	jidanni	team	"User wants to delete a defunct hamburger store.

User downloads a rectangle containing it along with other objects.

User reads
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/Action/Delete
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/Action/EditDelete
and find he can indeed delete the node from the LAYER.

That is all those pages talk about.

They need to go on and explain how to delete from OPENSTREETMAP.

Else the user thinks he will then upload his modified layer.

But that would just duplicate all the other nodes in the rectangle.

All this needs to be spelled out explicitly on those two help pages.

Else the user can only use ID or Potlatch2."	enhancement	closed	trivial		Core		wontfix
