OK Marc, thanks. Since @SomeoneElse is in the DWG, I suppose his advice
was as much arbitration as I can ask for.

Did you contact the owner of the airfield to find out how they name it
? Did you find a sign along the street pointing to the airfield with a
name ? Is there a name sign at the entrance ? Is there an official
document from a government which mentions a name ?
If all of those questions return false, i.e. no name, then the
airfield has no name. Maybe there are a few other places where we can
look for the item of items, but making them up from ones armchair is
certainly not one of them.
No everybody gives their house, private tennis court, driveway or
airfield a name. So noname=yes might be the only thing we can do. We
should not make up names as "Airfield of Family Anderson", "Airfield
near road N111" or whatever.

p.s. @Pieter, SomeoneElse, who participates in the changeset
discussion is member of the DWG.

I am in a bitter dispute with a couple of mappers who absolutely refuse to
accept a "name=*" tag on an aerodrome because officially it has no name -
indeed it figures in no official document.
My point of view is that an "invented" name - which can be discussed, of
course - is better than no name at all but they are quite adamant. How to
address this?
For the details: see https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/57717417 and
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/573934869
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Names has been called in but I found
nothing there to indicate only official names should be mentioned.
This seems really a case for arbitration, but how to request it?
