It seems that we have had 2 of us attempting the same change at the same time.  I hope that the database change  control can cope with this.
I did try to avoid such a clash by responding here before starting work.....

Regards,Peter

Note that the vast majority of the points in the Way were pre-existing. Any fix should leave them in place.

I’m fairly sure Potlach (assuming you want to tackle this via a browser editor) allows you to delete larger areas in one go – rather than deleting point by point.
 
   
  
I believe I've resolved this in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/84189877 - please let us know if all is OK.
 
 
For completeness, that was done in JOSM using the reverter plugin.  It also deleted the three extra nodes added in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/82728827 .
 
Potlatch 2 would also have worked, but I'd have needed to delete the 3 new nodes separately.
 
Some combination of  "revert.pl" "undo.pl" and/or "delete.pl" in the OSM revert scripts https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Revert_scripts would have worked, but I'd have needed to explicitly say "yes please delete the new way and the 3 new nodes".
 
Best Regards,
 
Andy
