Sep 25, 2014 at 15:17 comment added gparyani I'd like to add something to your third bullet: If you don't have VTC rights, if you find questions that you think deserve closure during your tag searches, cast recommend closure flags against them so that those who do have VTC rights can see those in the review queue and cast close votes against them if needed.
Sep 25, 2014 at 15:11 comment added gparyani Oh, and once you think you've removed a tag, you may not be done yet! Go back to your search query, add locked:1 to it, and flag those locked questions containing the tag so that they can be removed. Remember, locked questions (except those locked as merge stubs or migration stubs) don't show up in tag searches by default, so adding locked:1 will bring up those locked questions.
Sep 25, 2014 at 1:09 comment added Robotnik What about situations when removing tags, someone comes across an old question that is closed, and no amount of editing will make it a good question? (it's off-topic or whatever). They shouldn't suggest an edit just to remove the tag - they'd be better off either voting to delete if they have that privilege, or flagging for mod attention right? (I ask because this is a situation I've come across a few times)
