We have a tag named error-message, with now 220 95 49 questions tagged. This is quite the meta tag, because it doesn't mean anything and adds no value to a question. Most problems result in some kind …

Similar to error-message, which we just got rid of, there are also: alert × 26 warning × 37 Neither of these are really specific. They don't add meaning to the questions. Sometimes, alert refers …

I was surprised to see that we have a tag called annoyances (99 questions). Really? Burninate it, fast! Trogdor, I summon you! It is obvious that this is a useless meta-tag, that adds no valuable …

slow … Something that is not fast or moving at a slow pace. 276 questions tagged. But does it add any value? Seems like a classical meta-tag to me. If something is slow, then we already tag it w …

Well, we have a tag called error. Its description says: Please use a more specific tag instead. Awesome. So what do all these 547 questions have in common? A non-descriptive tag. On Oct. 10, @ra …

The tag tweaks (x60) is very broad and does not really serve any good purpose. It never adds value to any given tag combination, since you mostly want to "tweak" a certain thing – and we already hav …

Similar to Kill the [software-tools] tag, I don't see the point in keeping tools around. Typical meta tag. It doesn't explain what the question is about. If you're looking for a tool to do something, …

Please look at the 226 questions under failure. We are a site for computer problems. Tags such as "error" often don't add any additional value. The same goes for "failure", and it's probably a bit mo …

Yes, mono contains 39 questions, so it should be easy to just retag those about the Mono framework to mono-framework and leave mono for audio. If these are more than 10 questions, you shold probably …

Current status: The tag atom in its current form is used for both: The Intel Atom CPU architecture The Atom standard for XML-based web feeds Resolution: There already is an intel-atom tag. I've …

Looking through data (x70), there's a lot of ambiguity: data transmission data encryption data recovery data saving data in Excel data editing So, unless somebody wants to retag these manually, I' …

The tag software-tools seems like a perfect meta-tag. It could never be the only tag of a question. What are "software tools", even? People often abuse it for software-recs. Also, a common mistak …

I call the mighty Trogdor to burninate … howto … a tag with 49 questions. Why delete? Having the tag doesn't add any value to a question. People probably shouldn't specifically ask for how-tos, sin …
