[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Littleton Street, Walsall

[Rob Nickerson]

How about short_name (which is listed as recognised by nomination so should
appear in the search results). For the others it's probably easiest to just
tag it, leave a few days and see if it appears in the search - that is
unless anyone can point you in the direction of what does and does not get
captured by the search function.
