In the case of things that aren't simple typos that you think might be 
"mistakes", you really ought to try and contact the original mapper 
rather than just removing tags that you don't understand (1).  It may be 
that you don't understand the concept that the original mapper was 
trying to capture, or that they need to document something better, but 
talking rather than remote editing really ought to be the first step.

Cheers,

Andy
