Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Hiking_checkpoint

2011-07-17 Thread Zsolt Bertalan
Hi,

I forgot about the fact, that El Camino and the Countrywide Blue Tour are
also Tourism Movements. I have links in the proposal. CBT has one route, El
Camino has several. So a TM can have several, one or none designated route.
I consider the individual trails on trail-blaze.com as Tourism Movements,
while trail-blaze.com is the organisation or operator. So I would tag a
cehckpoint on this as follows:

tourism=hiking_checkpoint
tourism_movement=The Ridgeway
operator=trail-blaze.com
checkpoint:type=electronic
url=http://www.trail-blaze.com/race.asp?race=14
name=Princes Risborough

I hope it's all clear now. It seems to me that there is no general term for
this in English as everybody use their own special term (walk, trail, route,
etc.).
Is Themed Walk better than Tourism Movement or you just accept that it's a
thing coming from the Eastern Block and adopt the term for it?
We adopted hundreds of words from English, English have only a few Hungarian
loanwords (coach, goulash, saber, paprika, vizsla, komondor, puli, that's
it). Let's adopt this one! It's only a loan translation. :)

 I found this googling your examples:

 Perhaps Themed Walk would be a good translation?

Heh...no one will ever understand what tourism_movement is meant to
mean. Let's keep looking for the right term.

 We adopted hundreds of words from English, English have only a few Hungarian
 loanwords (coach, goulash, saber, paprika, vizsla, komondor, puli, that's

Adopting an actual Hungarian word would actually be less confusing
than this Hunglish translation...

I'm still not seeing a fundamental difference between these types of
walks and normal walking routes (rwn, nwn etc). Can you explain more?

The problem is that, while English sometimes uses movement to mean a group of 
people with a common goal, it does not, at present, use movement to mean a 
series of actions to be taken to achieve that goal.  So, an organization of 
hikers might be termed a movement, but the routes along which they are 
encouraged to hike would not be termed a movement.  After all, the hikers (and 
the people organizing the hikers) are the ones moving in both the physical and 
metaphorical senses.  The routes themselves take no action.

This tag is more likely to be understood by English-speakers if you use a less 
literal translation.

course is very good. it also gets used in time-speed-distance
rallying in the US for a route over public roads with intermittent

trail gets used in this metaphorical way, and it's not that

That perfectly matches your description of They consist of

How about tourism route?

Perhaps what is meant by tourism movement is a club or organization for 
hikers, since he mentioned the awarding of badges for completing particular 
routes.
