Mike, you have just asked: "BTW: We are growing a Knowledge Base > Knowledge Base Index and suggestions for topics will be welcomed."
For me, a most useful addition would be a "Getting Ready to Map Places" section, giving a step by step guide to preparing Place definitions, how best to construct "Standardized Places" (e.g. should they always include country, and in England should this be UK as well as, say, England; should postcodes always be included and where not known in full will the first 3 characters be useful); refer to your Rearrange Place Parts plugin; how to deal with places (aka addresses) that no longer exist e.g. due to redevelopment, disappearance of old farms, etc.
