Asksage has tons of tags, so that when selecting one of them, the pages tagged with a synonym are not shown. This wiki page aims at finding a good set of representative, in order to merge them on the server.
A first good clean-up task would be to remove all unused tags, those that only appeared in a deleted question.
Concerning the tag redirections and replacements, here is one example of choice to be made:
EllipticCurve (124 questions)
Elliptic-curves (20 questions)
and one has none of the following
elliptic-curves
elliptic-curve
elliptic_curve
elliptic_curves
And here is another example:
- number_fields × 39
NumberField × 21
- number × 17
- number_theory × 17
- algebraic_number × 14
- numbers × 8
- number-theory × 7
- numberfieldtower × 2
- number-field-ext × 2
And here is another one:
- mac × 53
- MAC-OS10.7 × 13
- mac-OS10.11 × 9
- Mac-OS10.14 × 8
- mac-OS10.15 × 7
- Mac-OS10.13 × 7
- mac-os10.8 × 6
- Mac-OS10.9 × 5
- MacOS10.6 × 5
- Mac-OS10.10 × 5
- mac-OS10.12 × 1
- mac-os10.5 × 1
So should we rather use singular or plural ? underscore or dash ? CamelCase for existing classes and functions ?
