It's a pity to see so little routes in Wallonia, to see the existing
ones poorly documented and to claim that OSM wants that despite its "do
it as you like with fuzziness" basic principle.

I will remove the so-called inappropriate Wikiloc tags.

On the other hand, could this police service please, and with a higher
priority than Wikiloc because they are simply illegal starting 2007 and
totally since 2012, have the multicolored icons removed or changed to
plain color.
