They don't, unless the person writing the changeset comment puts that 
information in there.

With a DWG hat on I see quite a few complaints about people not replying 
to changeset comments where the comment was just something like "this is 
wrong" or "it is wrong to do X", rather than a message that looks like 
it was intended to start a conversation.  OSM Messages are by their very 
definition being sent to people; it always helps to add the detail that 
you would to any other first message to a person.  I appreciate that 
this is frustrating given the low response rate from MAPS.ME users (for 
the reasons already discussed).

Incidentally, Mail.ru has apparently recently sold MAPS.ME:
