The "imports" mailing list would be the right place to discuss it, if
it's a bulk edit (is it?). It doesn't seem to have GB-specific
implications for this list IMHO (even though this particular changeset
is of course within gb).

It's pretty well-established that wikipedia=* is supposed to reference
the wikipedia article about the feature itself, not the operator. The
wiki page has, for more than 5 years, given the guidance: "only
provide links to articles which are 'about the feature'. A link from
St Paul's cathedral in London to an article about St Pauls is fine. A
link from a bus depot to the company that operates it is not." So
irrespective of how the edit was done - in what sense is this
"changing the behaviour of a well-known tag"?
