In Nederland there are many of village_green like areas, used for community events, but without a formal status. I would support tagging these as village_green. Larger cities tend to have several of these areas, often because villages have been incorporated but the central area has retained its function as "village green" in the neighourhood. Let's join the countries that already do this.
I would also gladly help retagging areas wrongly tagged as village_green. It's used a lot but nothing we couldn't fix in a project, if we agree on a clear convention.
