See the question, Census or Residence; it inquires about whether a census is an "event" or if it is a series of underlying "pfacts" (age/inferred dob, residence, occupation, etc.).
We have a tag for census-records, do we need tags for the related concepts of "events" and even more specifically for "residence." etc.?
I agree with a comment on the question by @AmericanLuke:
My first thought is that "event" is way too broad. It won't be very helpful.
However, the term residence turns up in quite a few questions so I think it could be useful.
I use frequency of terms being used as a proxy (and very rough) measure for whether they might be useful as tags. For me terms that could be used on too many or too few Q&As make poor tags for SE sites.
I can foresee our users filtering questions using it to expand their understanding of what residence means to genealogists and family historians when thinking about things like:
These could be found by simply searching on the term but that wide net may lead to opening Q&As where residence is an aside rather than central. By tagging the subset of questions where the term is important we can quickly distinguish Q&As about residence from those that merely mention it.
I feel "event" and "residence" are both very broad / generic that wouldn't bring a lot of value. Instead of residence I would use the more commonly used "address", or "property-records" depending on the question. There are also some other location based mapping tags like "GIS" already in use as well.
