[Talk-GB] CWGC: worldwide, war graves

[Colin Smale]

=yes would flag its existence and someone could add the actual id number
later. I assume you consider the presence of the sign as sufficient
evidence that the site actually exists. It may refer to specific graves
in a general cemetery (so it would be an additional attribute of the
cemetery object) but it may also be a dedicated cemetery in its own
right.
