[Talk-us] GNIS points improvement

I just ran a query on the database for GNIS imported points features
against version:

"count"	"version"
680175	1
193999	2
57436	3
7494	4
1661	5
309	6
103	7
30	8
14	9
4	10
5	11
3	12
3	13
1	14
1	15
1	22

I would love to believe that v2 GNIS points are actually
human-improved - or was there another bot run over the GNIS import?

Another thing: I queried for the occurence gnis:feature_id but there
is also features with other sets of GNIS tags. Are those different
imports / are they from different datasets?

Example of 'type 1'
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/150937600 (having a
'gnis:id')
Example of 'type 2'
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/356682786 (having a
'gnis:feature_id')
