The category names are from Wikipedia. I start with the "Airports by country" category and just grab the subcategories for United Kingdom and Ireland. In a previous version I had code to strip the ' by country' from the end. I'll try and restore it to reduce the confusion. -- Edward. Colin Smale

Hi Edward I would import only after an invitation by a mapper or mappers in the relevant county, and only after they've checked where your data has more than one match and indicated which of the multiple matches is the appropriate one A wiki table showing the progress of each county would be use
