I agree, manually retagging old stuff is almost out of the question. But it would be better if we'd addopt mac-osx instead of osx, as fretje suggested. This might help clarify things for users tagging their question. They would start typing mac and they'd be able to see the mac-osx tag, which is usually the one that they want; most of the questions are probably about the OS, not the hardware.

| Oct 12, 2009 at 9:47 | comment | added | Diago | A mass re-tag will not help much in this case since the individual questions need to be reviewed to manage this. Good news is that I see Jeff has tagged the Tag Blacklist as being planned so it should help resolve this issue with regards to the sets of tags being used. | |
