That is not insignificant information. At no point has a proposal been made to remove fixme=yes. -- As for harm, any user of a tool that shows fixme tags: http://keepright.ipax.at/report_map.php?zoom=12&lat=39.95356&lon=-75.12364 Is directing energy to both useful fixme tags, and fixme tags that at best are markers of a poorly considered import. A bulk purge cold save a lot of time. I do encourage people to remove fixme keys when they edit: many times the underlying problem gets fixed, but the fixme tag stays.
