Some notes on this big update:

I just looked over the last few Morning Musume concert tours, made a list of the names that weren't already on the Venues page, and matched them up with the Japanese names by the linked-to schedule pages. This is far from some complete list--I just decided I had plenty to work with for now once I got around 30.

I then did a bit of web searching to try to find some basic information. If these were individual pages they'd be categorized as article stubs for sure. A few times the same place was referred to with slightly different names on different concert pages and I probably didn't always pick the best one. Sometimes there would legitimately be different names for the venue due to things like sale of naming rights or having official English versions--I listed them when they were obvious.

A few of these when I went searching, I found they were merely one of several halls at a location. Like there'd be a great hall and a small hall. I tried to list them as specifically as they were given on the official schedules, but maybe being more general is desirable and if need be in the future different halls at the same place can be listed together.

I also preemptively note since this starts to make the page pretty long, if it's decided to split it up in any way, it probably shouldn't be a big deal to use the bot to modify existing links pointing to Venues#Specific Place.
