Comments

• This should also be available on areas, too. Also, something to mark indoors or out. --Cohort 08:10, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
• Oh, and I'd suggest using a windmill beside a golf tee (with ball). --Cohort 08:13, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
• looks good to me, i will support. i like cohort's idea of a windmill for the iconMyfanwy 09:44, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
• Another possibility (without disagreeing with this proposal) is to use sports=minature_golf tag instead. sports=model_aerodrome is currently being proposed. MikeCollinson 16:42, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
  • I favour the leisure tagging while we are marking a physical feature. The sports=minature_golf tag could otherwise be used to specify that miniature golf is practiced in a structure already tagged for a more general use, like for example a fun park.
• I like the windmill idea, and I think that leisure is the right place for this. Do we want to cover mapping the individual holes as well as the entire mini-golf park (or whatever they're called)? --Hawke 08:20, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

• Re: mapping holes - I would suggest that something separate be used for that purpose, since it could cover 'standard' golf courses as well. Perhaps a golf=* tag? ("golf=hole", "golf=tee", etc.) --Cohort 13:47, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Miniature golf is something completely different in different countries. E.g. a German standard 18 hole miniature golf parcours is surely sports=miniature_golf while in fun parks in Canada the parcours are very individual, so I would recommend leisure=miniature_golf. Guess we need both.--Lulu-Ann 12:56, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh no, please do not use both! That's too confusing. Of course it can be both but I think we can discuss this till we are dead ;) And before this discussion never ends I think it's better to use the tag that is proposed.

• I've resurrected this proposal --Outsider 11:51, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
• Please do NOT use a windmill for the icon. While common in the US, you will hardly find any minigolf parcours in Germany that has a windmill. Therefore Germans will only associate a windmill with minigolf if they know it from US media. --Head 08:11, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
