I have noticed with the new GeoNames import that a lot of places have 
appeared with a name like: "Ivy Street School (historical)" - many of 
these seem to be institutions that haven't existed for 50 years or more. 
  Do we want to include them on Openstreetmap?  It seems that it ought 
to be a map of the present, not the past.  If we don't want to include 
them, should we delete them by hand, or would an automated process be 
better to do so?
