It is possible to remove these bot contributions without affecting later 
edits. The OSM inspector would then, after a while, pick up the fact 
that the current version of the object retains no properties that were 
added by the license disagreer, and mark the objects as "harmless" 
(unless there are other problems).

Is there a consensus in the Australian communitiy that these tags are 
worthless and should be removed?
