They're me.

My script adds the tag when it's busy undoing very broken things.
So far that's included reclaiming some nodes stolen by Portugal (by
FilipeOliveira), and replacing a lost part of Clapham.

Feel free to remove them -- the revert didn't break so they're not
really needed any more. Similarly they're not doing any harm so
there's no need to bot-kill them or anything.
