I think that the Tag is far too broad as there are so many different types of recovery (which also have tags for them) such as , , and so on. I think it needs to be split up into different types of recovery. Then obviously Axe the tag.

    For tag markup use [tag:tagname] formatting

  • Wouldn't it make sense to take it a bit further and deprecate partition-recovery in favor of data-recovery?

Completely agree with you. Checked first 50 question of tag - found no reason to keep it.

Moreover, a lot of questions tagged with tag also have , and tags with them which makes tag unmeaningful.
Another part of questions use 2 tags e.g. and in place of , so they can live without too.


And this question is probably the best evidence for removing it.

After several months of trickle edits, and many small bites, the tag has been removed from all the questions.

Tagliminated. Tagnnihilation. Tagatomised!

It seems I missed... quite a lot. It still lives :(
