I occasionally make some queries with Overpass Turbo to clean up data,
many of which are country-specific - related to street naming etc.
One of them though is related to misuse of iD: people (or companies
trying to mark themselves) add POIs to the map as an address point
with a name (or adding a name to an existing one) - without a
"principal" tag such as shop or amenity. I couldn't convince @bhousel
to discourage this programatically (and obviously there's plenty of
them in the DB already). Could be nice to gamify fixing them with
proper tagging.

Direct MapRoulette integration with Overpass API would be fantastic.
