Can you provide a link to the Ugandan discussion? It's also wrong to
refer to this as a final validation - it's discussion just like needed
to be done with the Ugandan community, and neither is more a final
validation than the other.

Looking at the suggested changeset comment, you should not mandate a
particular comment, but have users use a good changeset comment[1].
You've also listed the source tag twice.
Past experience has shown that importing with a fixme doesn't work. They
don't generally get fixed.
Are users expected to make use of the information in the note tag and
then remove it, so we won't see note tags in what is imported?
The workflow mentions abbreviations. Are these common enough to be worth
expanding in the conversion script?
Can we see some sample data?
