Two new topics in the wiki discussion:

osm.wiki/Talk:Tag:leisure%3Dgolf_course#Automated_edits_to_remove_leisure=pitch_+_sport=golf

Thanks for the help so far. I'll post on the wiki.

Depending on feedback, I can pull my changesets and manually revert if needed. While there were other fixes (e.g. typos) I should be able to key in on the main focus of each changeset and make the needed revert.

I appreciate the offer of help and I will take you up on it if I need it. I already feel bad for my misunderstanding. So I'll try to minimize additional impact on others for now :-)

Thanks again. I'll post the link to the discussion in the wiki shortly.

Hi, Glassman. Sorry for the confusion here. Regretfully, I mistook this for a blatant error. So I did not discuss first. I am waiting to make further edits, including reverting it, until I can get some input on the forums. There are a few other edits related to golf=* that are mentioned there as well. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Nothing reliable came up in searching for "CTLM". Do those other maps show who the operator is? I assume CTLM is the name of a building or business?

You commented there already. In case anyone else has input on these tags that the wiki says not to use on golf=*, the link to a forum post is below with further explanation.

Thanks for the info. I took this as a blatant fix that would not need discussion. Knowing about the "Any tags you like" will change how I treat obscure tags like this in the future.

I took this as a blatant fix, where no discussion would be needed. The wiki says "Do not use sport=golf or leisure=pitch" on features of a golf course. I came across enough that it made more sense to edit in an automated way.

If you think this warrants discussion, let me know. There are other areas I have not fixed yet.

Thanks for that link. That is new to me (or I forgot).

I did some looking around. There is no wiki info for finely_mown=* and it is used sporadically. It seems to be the same as grass=finely_mown which has more use and more closely matches other tagging schemas.

Thoughts on me going through this changeset to add grass=finely_mown where finely_mown=* was used?

When checking for the ID, it did not exist. I saw "We're sorry, we couldn't find a record with the feature id 2449866 in our system."

The record no longer exists for that ID on nationalmap.gov.
