In regards to PR https://github.com/Police-Data-Accessibility-Project/Scrapers/pull/58

It may also be beneficial to tell scrapers to mention what the field is called within their data similar to what I have done with the Pomona readme, or for them to comment if they are unsure of the meaning, like I did with Butte's readme.

If you all want to keep it as is, so be it- but I won't be using that format.

Other potential changes:

Sorry if this came out harshly, I'm just upset that it took me this long to figure out how to word it ;)
