I'm a (UK based) maintainer of the NSI repository and can push changes
directly to it. I haven't been as active lately, but previously was working
my way through UK brands.

"The Range" is one I've looked at previously but never figured out the most
appropriate tagging which is why it still isn't in the index (for cases
like that I'd like to consult the community for some consensus). I'll
actually start a new thread to discuss this brand today.

"Hotel Chocolat" I believe is shop=confectionery in the index purely
because it was the established tagging. If there is some community
consensus it should be changed then that can be done (and this is why the
index is so useful, because all existing locations matched to the brand via
`brand:wikidata` could be automatically re-tagged with the preferred value).

If there are brands missing or issues with the current brand tagging I'd
suggest either:
- Open an issue on the repository (or a pull request if you're comfortable
with git and json) and all contributors will then see it
- If you don't have a github account and don't want one, just bring things
up on this mailing list (feel free to email me directly too) and I'll see
them and can either open an issue or push changes
