They don't look like mass automated edits to me - these are smaller
quantities of changes made via Potlatch. They could just be responding
to the editor's prompts not to use abbreviations.

The consensus seems to lean toward automating the name expansion.
And no matter how many times it is discussed ahead of time, someone will
be surprised when the script is run (if it ever does run).
