yes im hoping to add in the next month or two after i get through north america

definitely better filled through the site itself! any submissions get queued and reviewed overnight. Then elevated to human review if it's hard to verify automatically.

please report through the site!

I'd like to to the same with my data (allow a download of all the course pages) eventually. I'm only publishing facts at the moment but would love to support other features (local …

why?

This doesn't provide the same level of information I (or most golfers) are looing for

yeah maybe they'll donate one day.

eventually yes. I've named a bunch that were unnamed from OSM
