I can 'see' where each sport is.
So what do you do when multiple athletic disciplines are performed on
the same pitch/track?
The present 'system' in the sports key is duck tagging.
There is a lot of those from the early days, yes. That does not mean
it is necessary to introduce a whole lot more.
For example ... football could have been tagged
sport=football
football:soccer=yes
I gave you an example where subtagging in sport worked well.
Is one method better than the other? I don't think there is a clear
winner there, more personal opinion.
The way to deal with chaos is structure, in my opinion.
To get back to part of my original question ... shot_put looks to be
preferred over shotput.
Good, one thing we agree on.
Well ... 'we' did.
I have just bought a new large Dictionary .. A 'Macquarie' .. about
1,500 A4 pages, it is not the latest not their 'gold plated version'
(that would cost several hundred dollars).
That has "Shot-put" ... note the dash, not an uderscore. So I am back to
thinking about it. The dictionary has this to say about '-' usage
.."British style tends to use them where American style would avoid them
by means of either a spaced or set-solid alternatives. See, for example,
*hot dog* where two variants *hot-dog* and *hotdog* are also given."
