Single use tags and synonyms

Question

We had a great grand opening, now we need to work on cleaning up all of the confetti on the floor. If you have a few minutes, please take a look at where single use tags begin and work your way to the end.

What I'd like to do is start a discussion to address the following:

• Are any of the single use tags meta tags? I.e. do they fail to describe the content of the question?

• Do several tags overlap? If so, which one should be the primary tag and which ones should be synonyms?

• Are any of the tags too localized? I.e. not likely to be used ever again?

I'm hoping that we can address this now, rather than later while its still a relatively easy task to accomplish. I'm also wondering if some of our unanswered questions might receive more attention if they were tagged better.

Answer 1

Here are a few to kick things off... I've made this CW; please add to it!

Meta (tags, not site)

• website
• www
• best-practice
• webmaster

Synonyms

• https, ssl, tls (close enough)
• certificate, ssl-certificate
• cdn, content-delivery-network
• browser, browsers
• static, static-content
• url, urls
• user, users
• poll, visitor-poll
• ab-testing, a-b-testing

Is synonym management available on the SE sites yet?
