    1414* (like online editors like iD or Potlatch) you need to upload your changes to OSM server. Make sure you connected to server :-)
    15 * you may encounter [wiki:Help/Concepts/Conflict conflicts] after you upload changes (in most cases this means you will have to [wiki:Dialog/Conflict#Resolvingdifferencesbetweentags choose what tags to leave on your objects])
     15* you may encounter [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Conflict conflicts] after you upload changes (in most cases this means you will have to [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Conflict#Resolvingdifferencesbetweentags choose what tags to leave on your objects])
    1616* to reduce chance of conflict:
    1717 * don't edit data other mappers edit in same time window
    1818 * make your downloads-uploads quicker, so there no overlap between your time-window and theirs
    1919* (rough idea) to entirely avoid conflict, don't edit objects with same id and don't alter their parent relations (node-way and way-relation and relation-relation). If you (and other editor) are editing disjoint datasets (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint_sets), then there won't be conflict at all. Please note that it also means that all parent ways and all parent relations should be respected (which is likely to change).
    20 * (unlike online editors like iD or Potlatch) you don't have to upload immediately (you may [[Help/Action/Save]] file manually but [[Help/Action/AutoSave]] will further assist you)
    21 * (unlike every other editor?) JOSM will let you upload changes to already opened (but not a closed) changeset (see [[#Multipleuploadsintoonechangeset]]). Every open changeset will "close" automatically by http://openstreetmap.org server after 1 hour.

    2323== Changesets, upload requests, and upload strategies ==
    2424Geo data contributed to the OSM server consists of [Concepts/Object nodes, ways, and relations]. Because there are hundreds of mappers publishing their geo data on the OSM server it is important to track who published what data in which context. It would be tedious for mappers to describe why every single node and every single way is published. A more convenient approach is to package a group of related objects and assign the package itself a comment, instead of the individual objects.
    2525
    26 The OSM project calls such a package a **[Concepts/Changeset changeset]**. A **changeset** is a collection of related changes (new objects, object modifications, or object deletions) applied to OSM data.
    27 
    28 Changesets are different from **upload requests**. A changeset is a **logical** grouping of [Concepts/Object objects], whereas an upload request is a **technical grouping** for transferring geo data to the central OSM server only. In JOSM we say, that objects are uploaded **using** upload requests **to** a changeset. The JOSM Upload Dialog allows aspects of the upload requests and changeset objects to be configured. Some of the settings are compulsory (i.e. the user has to configure them before geo data can be uploaded) but most of them are optional and JOSM works with reasonable default values.

    3030Geo data can be retrieved later via the changeset it was uploaded to, though it can't be retrieved by the upload request used. Changesets have a unique identifier, upload requests have not. For instance, [osmwww:browse/changeset/3274448 this changeset] includes geo data from tracing over orthofotos of the city of Bern, Switzerland. It isn't possible, though, to see the upload requests that were used to fill it.
