I'm not sure about that. Very recently I noticed the Architectural Association on Bedford Square was missing (interest is that it has a bookshop). I was able to locate it using OOC OSGB maps (particularly the late Victorian town plan & the post-war 1:1250 maps of London), which also had house numbers on.
All well & good until looking at the image on Wikipedia I realised it showed the S side of Bedford Square, not the W side. This same error was present in IIRC 12 language versions and Wikidata. I corrected one or two, but for the rest merely noted that the image was incorrect. I certainly could see no simple way to correct all at once.
