To help us focus on what type of “green” I’m (and others) are thinking of, I 
have prepared a photo-collage:

At the core of all this we we see:

- areas of any size but more often small
- a variety of grass, plants, flowers and trees in any number and combination
- located mostly inside urban areas 
- there is not normally an entrance to the area but sometime a footpath divides 
it

Tagging this with leisure=garden covers all situations quiet well, save for the 
“entrance” part.
One other idea was to add the operator=* tag. E.g. operator=municipality.

One of the other possibilities (proposed in the Dutch Forum) to tackle this 
problem, is to redifine village_green to mean something different in The 
Netherlands then in the UK. Such local meaning of tags we also see for highway 
tagging.
