Description
If you look at this page, you will see that a number of cities do NOT have the country name set. This is normally done automatically, by using the city boundaries to look up the country. Those cities without countries, have no boundaries set.
Your task is to help with this. It is a big task to find the boundaries, so instead it would be great if we can set the GPS coordinates for cities as a temporary fix. That means that you will simply enter the latitude and longitude (which you can check on e.g. Google) for each city. Later, with more time, we can load the actual boundaries, but this would be a great first step.
