Try to (additionally) tag with

name:tr=Ozanköy
name:gr=Kazaphani

so OSM has at least both names available. If, one day, someone renders 
greek and turkish versions of the map, the renderer can select the most 
appropiate name.

I'm at work just now, but I'll try to determine the node ID of the place 
and contact the other editor and tell him the same.

No. You would have to come to terms with the other guy :-(
