python-api was merged into python a while ago. Why does it still appear in the prompt as a separate tag?
1 Answer
python-api appears because it is a tag synonym for python, if you chose either, it would give you the same tag. Originally, there was python-api and the less used scripting then there was a trial period when we were deciding whether or not to just make one giant python tag or keep separate variants.
However, since the python is shorter and the one being used, the other is no longer needed and has now been removed. python is now the sole tag.

$\begingroup$ I thought synonyms were only displayed underneath the suggestion for the parent tag (where it says "also:"). E.g. if you type in
scr
in the tag input field, you will get a suggestion for scripting with a little "also:" for script, but no separate suggestion for script. Am I missing something? Or . . .? $\endgroup$– gandalf3Commented May 9, 2014 at 8:47 -

$\begingroup$ I noticed that with
python-api
. However, both of those tags (model
andmodelling
) don't seem to have their own separate prompt (likepython-api
does). Why doespython-api
seem to be the only synonym to have a prompt? $\endgroup$– gandalf3Commented May 9, 2014 at 18:03 -
$\begingroup$ @gandalf3 This is because the
python-api
tag was still around. It has been removed now so it shouldn't appear. $\endgroup$– iKlsRCommented May 9, 2014 at 19:13
