Not sure that it makes sense to tag a multi-hundred-acre area as a single contiguous sports pitch. And, while I'm not familiar with the current consensus around sport=motocross nor motorsports tagging more generally, I also question if it applies to this area at all. The primary designated use of trails & riding areas here is for ATVs, not specifically dirt bikes, and I wouldn't characterize the here as "enclosed off-road circuits."

Sproul State Forest, PA: Should the Bloody Skillet ATV trails (and other DCNR operated designated ATV trail systems) be set to foot/bicycle/horse: no?
The ATV Riding page mentions "It is important to practice common courtesies when riding your ATV on a trail: ... Yield the right of way to bikes, horses, and hikers"
https://www.dcnr.pa.gov/Recreation/WhatToDo/ATVRiding/pages/default.aspx
The DCNR ATV policy does not mention anything for/against other users on ATV trail systems: https://elibrary.dcnr.pa.gov/GetDocument?docId=3454622&DocName=DCNR%20Final%20ATV%20Trail%20Policy%20-%20November%202020.pdf
Michaux mentions "Motorcycles and trailbikes are not permitted on all-terrain vehicle trails." but no mentions of hikers/horses, and it is unclear whether "trailbikes" are motorized off-road vehicles or human powered pedal bicycles (which would lead to bicycle: no). On other DCNR maps, non-motorized pedal bikes are referred to as "mountain biking" or "bike" in the map legend.
I asked a state park ranger about this and the ranger was not sure.

Tiadaghton State Forest, PA: OSM discourages the use of abbreviations in road/trail names. What is "Hol." short for in "Fred Hol. Tr."? Is it "Hollow"?

add "Richard O. Rowlands Preserve at Aitkin Cave" in the correct location (may require ground survey if no mapper has the local knowledge). Refer to image: https://in.pinterest.com/pin/the-richard-o-rowlands-preserve-at-aitkin-cave-is-a-haven-for-bats--675610381591097209/

way/32672594/history has shop = farmers_market

shop=farmers_market ? What kind of shop, if any is here? Is it intentionally used instead of shop=farm and amenity=marketplace ? If yes, what is the difference? Should we document this shop value as distinct, valid and useful?
