I can think of at least one way in which every single node had to be
moved by me.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/30212277
The way was originally added with Yahoo imagery, but the alignment was
off by a long way, I corrected it via survey (also splitting the way).
I haven't checked if the previous editors have accepted the new CTs,
but (just as an example) if they haven't, then under this rule, this
way will be deleted even though all the nodes in the way are mine.
If information has to be deleted, it's obviously better for the least
amount of data to be deleted as possible. For a way like this, the
nodes moved by me should be kept (as I've accepted the CTs), and as
much information left as possible - i.e. keep any new tags on the
nodes and the way added by myself. (In this example, the name would
have to go as it was edited by another user.)
