The source:geometry=* tag should go to the changeset, not to all the
objects. It is the purpose of a changeset to group changes. source=*
tags on objects exist a lot in the database but they are legacy.

The Import Guidelines require a wiki page describing the import. A
discussion on this mailing list (and from my point of view also the
local community buy-in) requires this wiki page to be complete.

I hope that that wiki page answers most of my open questions.

Best regards
