I think that it may be a good idea to considering automated deleting fixmes
that:
- were added by mechanical mass edit
- were added to existing objects
- are completely useless
- are not indicating low quality of data/tags

For example set␣better␣denotation is not fitting - it seems that in this
case
also denotation tag should be removed, together with fixme.
