Dear Kenneth, I'm sorry that you have found offense where none was intended. I am aware of the work on the wiki[1] and mentioned and linked the wiki in my article as I took much of my guidance from the wiki. Your suggestion that I've reinvented the wheel is baffling. I've used golf=fairway/green/bunker/tee as suggested on the wiki and discussion page[2]. I added golf=tee to the wiki as it was only on the discussion page. None of these are reinventing the wheel. I marked water areas as natural=water and trees as landuse=forest as seen in every country on OpenStreetMap, so surely you are not suggesting that is reinventing the wheel. I've put together an example in mapnik, the discussion page has samples in Kosmos and osmarender. No duplication there. So what has put your nose out of joint? Help me understand you.
