[closed] I can’t change a name in -7.054215,43.536089,-7.048346,43.538613

Name to change: IES Dionisio Gamallo Fierros to IES de Ribadeo. in -7.054215,43.536089,-7.048346,43.538613. It's a legal change on the institution. I've created the new name to the building and place, but ancient name and shapes remain in OSM.

You changed it successfully. You just had to wait for the map tile to be rerendered to see the change on the default Mapnik map.

Hi Agremon, you probably mean https://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/172232784/history (or one of the other building/area lines there), right? See how-often-does-the-main-mapnik-map-get-updated (if you mean the standard map view on osm.org). You just have to wait a bit (maybe only some minutes, maybe some days) and make sure that your browser does not cache a old map version.
