I have been spending a lot of time looking at Taginfo and golf courses. I would like to layout the best way to map a golf course based on what I have found. </div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">
<br></div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">I was thinking of creating a page "HOWTO map a golf course 2013"</div>
<div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;"><br></div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">
This is not a proposal for tags, I would link to Taginfo pages of tags that are already used, this would just help with data consistency.</div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">
<br></div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">My reasoning comes from the idea that mappers like a challenge like a golf course, much like they do a zoo. In Scotland there are between 530-630 golf courses. This would be useful if the data were consistent. It would also get the golfing
community talking about openstreetmap and there are a considerable number of golfers</div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">
<br></div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">Are there any precedents for HOWTO pages</div><div style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;">
