I notice that you've now decided to upload this changeset adding 
Ukrainian "names" for places:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/24588556

Taking for example Nottingham:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/24913081

What is the source of this data?

Under what licence was it made available?

How can someone who's local to Nottingham actually verify that the name 
that you've added is correct?

For the record it looks like a simple "soundalike translation" of 
Nottingham from one alphabet to another, rather than a unique name at all.

Cheers,
