The tag _leisure=common_ is used quite a lot in African villages where they 
have a large flat open space, ungrassed. It is used for communal gatherings, 
football games and markets. If you wish to deprecate the tag then what are you 
suggesting is the correct tag for this?

>From Wiki _Tag:leisure=common_
Use leisure=common to identify land over which the public has general rights of 
use for certain leisure activities. More specific tags can be added to provide 
greater precision.

Subject: [Tagging] Deprecating of leisure=common and leisure=village_green

While making some cleaning in osm-carto we have found that 
leisure=common and leisure=village_green are probably not clear enough 
to show them any more. They both have deep roots in British law and 
history and are frequently misused, as far as I can tell.

Both are very popular - 57k and 86k uses, respectively - and still growing:

That means that maybe such tagging should be discouraged and replaced to 
not spread the confusion.
