[Talk-GB] Anyone fancy a bit of mindless drudgery?

A while back, someone imported names for a bunch of sewage treatment
works. They added the sewage works (which mostly weren't there before)
and got the names from a Yorkshire Water spreadsheet. Unfortunately,
the spreadsheet had an off-by-one error in it and they didn't sanity
check the data. If been fixing these a few at a time (and also tried to
interest the importer into fixing them all, without success).
An overpass query that mostly identifies them is
https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1oyq .
As an example, if you pick https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1040548970
from there, you'll see that the name is "Grimwith/STW" but the nearby
village is "Grinton".
Similarly, pick https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1040467951, allegedly
"Flawith/STW", but near "Flaxton" (and I can vouch for the "Flaxton"
being the correct village name there).
There are around 37 to do. I know that sometimes people "like stuff to
fix" so if anyone fancies a go, feel free. If not, no problem - I'm
sure I'll get round to finishing them off at some point :)
Best Regards,
Andy
