[talk-au] Improperly mapped beach names

[Graeme Fitzpatrick]

Late last, then early this year, it was spotted that people were adding
beach names to OSM, apparently by copying them from an unauthorised source.

After a *lot* of reverting, almost all of the improperly copied beach names
should now be gone, although some will still be there, as those users have
since deleted their accounts.

As always though, reversions of this size will have also caused some
collateral damage, so if you spot any, I’d ask if you could please fix it?

>From looking at when they were created, there were all bursts done in June
then Dec 21; May, Aug & Dec 22; then May & Sep 23, so they may start up
again over the next few months?

If you spot them reappearing, please raise a ticket to
data at osmfoundation.org ASAP.

Thanks!
Graeme
