We have two tags on meta about what to do with tags: retagging and tag-cleanup.
Is there any meaningful difference in meaning, or any useful difference in usage, between these two tags, or should they be retagged, cleaned up, synonymised, and merged? In the latter case, which one do we want to keep and which one should be made a synonym of it?
Also, can I have a prize for "most meta question ever on meta SFF"?
I was looking at this a couple hours ago...
I’d say tag-cleanup should merged into retagging. I thought that tag-cleanup would have to do with tag cleanup events, but that’s rarely how it’s used. If we want a tag for those events, it would be easier to create a new tag tag-cleanup-event and tag the 9 or so questions that relate to tag cleanup events.
retagging sounds less all-encompassing than a tag cleanup event, and tag-cleanup sounds like either a general cleanup (i.e. retagging) or a cleanup event, so it’s ambiguous. I would suggest not even creating a synonym for it because of this ambiguity, if we create a tag-cleanup-event tag.
