No!
Running sports have a particular track, not used for shot put,
hammer, discus, long jump etc etc.
I don't think long jump pitches are not used for any other sport? Do
you have an example?
Discus and hammer throws can share the same 'cage' ... but that means
those 'caged' areas cannot be used for javelin, high jump, pole vault
etc.
Man!
Sorry. No personal dispute/attack here. Just trying to get the detail
and some small understanding. OK?
Not all on the same of course. But as there is a high chance that more
than one sport
is performed on a particular one, as you just acknowledged, a yes/no
scheme is more
helpful than a bunch of contradicting duck tags.
Example, small school sports ground with straight track used for
sprint+jump:
sport=athletics
athletics:sprint=yes
athletics:long_jump=yes
Thrower place used for 3 kinds:
sport=athletics
athletics:shot_put=yes
athletics:discus_throw=yes
athletics:hammer_throw=yes
I would map each sport as individual pitches/tracks (running is a track
type thing). Then add the relevant sport to the individual pitch/track.
That way I can 'see' where each sport is.

> Then using the same logic sport=shot_put is also viable ... and so
on for the other 'athletic' sports.
No I just said I would tolerate its existence. So will I also tolerate
your thrower's pitch
tagged sport=shot_put, unless I see a kid throwing pebbles from there,
then I'll come and
retag it sport=athletics + athletics:shot_put=yes +
athletics:pebble_throw=yes, because I can't
encode the pebbles otherwise.
As individuals .. it is not upto 'us' to dictate what is used. :-)
The present 'system' in the sports key is duck tagging.
For example ... football could have been tagged
sport=football
football:soccer=yes
But it is duct tagged
sport=rugby_union ... not even sport=rugby, rugby=rugby_union !
Is one method better than the other? I don't think there is a clear
winner there, more personal opinion.
-----------------
My present thinking is to put up both systems .. and see what mappers
prefer ... much like the swimming_pool thing where both amenity and
leisure used it for some time to see what the mappers used most.
--------------------
To get back to part of my original question ... shot_put looks to be
preferred over shotput.
