There does seem to have been a few issues with some of the ones that 
have been imported already (I've only looked at the ones in the UK; not 
sure if they are typical of the rest).

looks fairly obviously misplaced - there's a Swan Hotel just up the 
road, but this node seems to be in the back yard of a bank.  Some 
discussion about the name would make sense - I wouldn't necessarily use 
the name of the location, unless it's actually called "The Swan Hotel 
bike repair station" (which it might be I guess, but it seems unlikely)

http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3306867054#map=17/51.64923/-0.40445

is similarly called after the thing that it is in: "Watford General 
Hospital".  In this case the node seems to be a duplicate of

http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2802994130

just across the road - I'm guessing that something went wrong when 
checking the nodes for import?
