Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Hiking_checkpoint
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. :) Zsolt Herrbert74 On Sat, Jul 16, 2011 at 1:26 AM, Zsolt Bertalan herrber...@gmail.comwrote: It's not an organisation.

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

It's only a loan translation. :) 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?

I think there are much more confusing terms in English than such a loan translation. And what about 'organised hiking tour'? That covers routes, walks, such movements with only checkpoints, etc., but doesn't sound good to me as a tagging key. It is confusing in an other way, because it covers more than I need (hiking tours without checkpoints). Argh. 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.

Just read my message further. Basically you get a brochure at the start for the stamps or codes and at the end you get a badge for visiting all the checkpoints.
