It will if people are prepared to tackle it. I've just spent about three
months adding {{geocoords}} to most of the ~7500 UK articles lacking them,
and there is only a handful left. I note that we have over 10,000 articles
with {{deadlink}}s, and that is my next project. Some assistance would be
welcome, before I go totally insane.
