[OSM-dev] Wikipedia Place checker

I have knocked up a simple script that gets all the pages in a Wikipedia
category and checks them against place names from a given region using
Overpass.

Passing in a category like Hamlets_in_Oxfordshire and Oxfordshire as the
region, I can then get a list of missing hamlets in Oxfordshire.

Would appreciate people giving it a shake. And if there is interest I would
consider making it available as a web 'service'.

Regards,
Craig
