| Aug 25, 2014 at 20:26 | comment | added | Shog9 | That never happens, @damryfbfnetsi. BTW, I'm not against raising the rep threshold - I'm against raising it now, when it seems there is much necessary retagging to be done. Make it your mission to make sure new tags are getting created when folks start asking questions about new topics, and get back to me in a month or so. | |
| Aug 25, 2014 at 20:20 | comment | added | gparyani | I think you should just try increasing the threshold to 1k or 1.5k temporarily to see what happens (whether the tag destroyal rate goes down/number of tag cleanup requests changes). We can revert it if it becomes a problem. I think so because in my opinion, the stats you have given don't adequately represent the full situation (because they don't represent removed tags), and because of the large amount of moderator and community support. | |
| Aug 25, 2014 at 20:17 | comment | added | Shog9 | Duplicates indicate that a tag was removed multiple times, @damryfbfnetsi. | |
| Aug 25, 2014 at 17:09 | comment | added | Braiam | @damryfbfnetsi actually that's how Shog pasted the list originally, I only ordered them. | |
| Aug 25, 2014 at 7:01 | comment | added | gparyani | @Braiam There's somethings wrong with that new list. Some of them are duplicated (e.g. untagged), and some of them were removed but were recreated and still exist today (e.g. microsoft-word-2011). | |
| Aug 25, 2014 at 7:00 | comment | added | gparyani | @Shog9 Please ask the devs to make it possible to determine who created now-destroyed tags, as I think we prematurely destroyed those before their use propagated. This way the stats will be full-on and not just the good ones sifted out of the mix. | |

add removed tags

| Aug 16, 2014 at 16:51 | comment | added | Braiam | Can you show us the ones created but later destroyed in the same range? (BTW, at least window-8 is a typo-ed tag) | |

| Jul 17, 2014 at 16:15 | comment | added | Shog9 | Yeah, the warning is weak sauce - I'd prefer something like this - but that'll have to wait. | |
| Jul 17, 2014 at 16:12 | comment | added | gparyani | And like I also said, the tag creation prompt is inadequate. It does not say what kinds of tags we don't want, and it encourages users to just click the button without thinking. | |
| Jul 17, 2014 at 16:09 | comment | added | Shog9 | w00t! You found a bug in my query, @damryfbfnetsi! Updated. | |

damryfbfnetsi found a bug in the logic I was using to pull these - there are a lot more valid tags!
|
| Jul 17, 2014 at 15:58 | comment | added | gparyani | Ah, yes, but not all of the tags that were actually created that have more than two questions each are in that list. Like I said, I remember creating the tag remoteapp before, but it is not in that list. And also, I've suggested edits to questions containing micosoft-word-2010 to remove the typo tag and replace it with the real tag. | |
| Jul 17, 2014 at 15:34 | comment | added | Shog9 | Sorry, I was in a bit of a hurry yesterday @damryfbfnetsi, and left out some of the details - see edit. | |

details

| Jul 17, 2014 at 4:01 | comment | added | gparyani | This isn't the full list. I remember creating the tags remoteapp and office-on-demand recently. What about the tags that only contain one question each? And regarding the creation prompt, it does not describe what kind of tags are not permissible. | |
| Jul 17, 2014 at 3:43 | comment | added | Shog9 | You don't like 2? What about 10? 50? The longer you wait, the more work someone has to do finding and retagging existing questions once the tag is created. Which, if you'll notice, mostly isn't happening. The most-used tag created in the last year was sublime-text-3 - and it had exactly one question in it when it was created on July 22nd, even though other questions had been previously asked about it. If you're gonna argue that fewer people should be able to create tags, then you gotta either have all the tags you need, or have folks willing to create them as-needed, @Ramhound. | |

I don't understand. Most of the 54 tags that were created are not even used. I don't believe a tag shouldn't be created for 1 or 2 questions. I even see a few examples that should be changed, for instance microsoft-surface-pro is not basically a brand Microsoft has created, not just a single model of a tablet.
