How should this question be tagged?

Question

Who/what made the noises on Miss Lucy's window?

Now it's tagged books+dracula.

I was thinking that bram-stokers-dracula would be better as a tag, but not entirely sure so won't retag without people agreeing.

Answer 1

Leave it alone, or add an author tag.

Bram Stoker's Dracula is actually the title of the 1992 film by Coppola. The novel's title is just Dracula, and should be tagged as such; the book tag should give enough extra context.

If more definition is necessary then a bram-stoker tag would be useful, but the tag wiki should clarify that it's about the real-life author.

I'm basing this on this meta answer about tagging practices, which addresses how to tag a specific work within a franchise/series. Basically, it advises to specify author's name and franchise tag instead of specific titles/seasons.

Answer 2

There are dozens of books with Dracula in them, Fred Saberhagen (author of the Berserker series) wrote quite a few himself. (In them, Dracula was the anti-hero.)

You should leave it tagged both "book" and "dracula", but it probably should have a third tag. And as BESW suggests, we do need to avoid ambiguity with the 1992 film. Not sure how to do that. Perhaps include the year in the tag name for the film, as wikipedia does for articles.
