For what it's worth, I'd be in favour of Frederik's proposal. Craters are good to map, but points indicating the location and details of historical events are not suitable in OSM (except as attributes of actual mapped features). Might be suitable for OHM maybe. Note that Frederik is proposing NOT to delete entries which are associated with a mapped crater. Further, the data was imported and not manually added, which says to me that the removal should be much less controversial. It's true that the set of points in question is pretty small, and it's easy to argue "why bother deleting them". But they are indeed inappropriate for OSM - not because they're uninteresting, but because they're historical not geographical data - so why prevent deletion.
