How should we handle inacurate "GEOnet Names Server (gns)" locations
From time to time I find nodes from "GEOnet Names Server (gns)" with incorrect locations.
I guess we want to correct them, right?
If so, should I change the "source", or leave it?

Re: How should we handle inacurate "GEOnet Names Server (gns)" locations
Good questions,
I also see those nodes near the border to Jordan and Syria, but I'm not able to fix the source as I don't know Arabic.
The only thing we could do is to move the node to the country that it should belong to.
Any better idea?
Beside that I think we should not leave that, but I remember that we discussed a long while ago to make them place=ruin. But I'm not sure.

At least you always can add note/fixme tag with explanations
