Hi

In the OSM wiki pages of sports there are 2 main types of descriptions present;


1) sport=filed_hockey description: Field Hockey

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:sport%3Dfield_hockey

The description is simply the name of the sport, with no additional information.


2) sport=australian_football description:*Wikipedia-16px.png Australian rules football <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Australian_rules_football>*, officially known as *Australian football*, also called <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_Australian_rules_football> *football*, *footy*, *Aussie rules*, or *AFL* is a sport <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sport> played between two teams of eighteen players on the field of either an Australian football ground <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_rules_football_playing_field>, a modified cricket field <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/cricket_field>, or a similarly sized sports venue <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sports_venue>.

Way too verbose! And it describes the sport .. not what is on the ground!


So I think a third method would be better ... and that the description should describe what is on the ground!


3) sport=field_hockey description: A rectangular pitch of x meters by y meters, with rectangular goals of v height and w width at both ends on which field hockey is played.


Describes what is on the ground to aid identification.


Thoughts?
