I forgot to say that I already did that. Once I will have cleaned my
mess, I will:
- add the wikipedia links again
- fix the ones having a wrong/outdated format (many of them have the tag
"wikipedia:ja" and an URL as value)
- complete the names using the existing information
- try to get a free source of data for the train stations
