[Talk-ca] Accidental deletions in Victoria

I was the person that deleted Dallas Road.  I would like to know how it
happened, however I am thinking that it might have been caused by
Validator when I used the Automatic Fix of nodes without ways.  I can
repair it as I have  a number of  GPS traces of the road from various
bike training rides over the last year, however, I would like to know
how to revert the changeset.  In future, I will keep an eye on what
Valiadator does.  Does anyone have any experience with Validator issues?

Thanks,

Peter
