RE: New Proposal - Measurement (in support of describing sports statistics)

Dear Jason,

Great work. And a valuable contribution. 
Looks good. Just one suggestion:
In the document you are using the imaginable player John, but in the examples below there are no references to this example. I am suggesting you add how you use schema.org to mark up / design what you have defined in the example.
Again: Just a suggestion, not a demand.

The information I am referring to is on page 1 and at the top of page 2.

Just to test your example with another sport:
I want to describe that 'Jamie did a 20 feet air at the X Games Huston in 2014 in the Highest air competition, in the first run..."
Jamie - Subject of the measurement
X Games Huston 2014, highest air competition - is the duration
1 run - the quantity that was measured
20 - is the number in that quantity
Feet -is the unit in that quantity

Also testing with soccer:
Description to be tested: 'John has received two yellow cards during the Norwegian Elite series'
John - Subject of the measurement
Norwegian Elite series - the duration
2 Yellow cards - is the quantity that was measured
2 - is the number in that quantity
Yellow cards - is the unit in that quantity...

Are both these examples correct, or did I miss something?

(I have not marked this up with JSON as I have not done any real schema.org markup like that (not completed schema.org-for-dummies-class.... ;) ))

Trond


All,

I have published a new draft (1.1) of this proposal that incorporates updates based on community feedback thus far.  Please take a look and let me know how you like the updates.

Cheers,

- Jason

Hi Simon,

Thank you; these two references are super.
