[talk-au] Undiscussed, undocumented mass edit across all of Australia.

[Andrew Harvey]

On behalf of the DWG, I'll revert the changeset in question due to the
undiscussed automated edit, especially because this was flagged as an
automated edit to the contributor prior to making the change and a
discussion didn't take place before the upload

Happy to continue the community discussion on the merits of the change.

on behalf of the DWG,
Andrew Harvey
