Sep 27, 2017 at 9:59 comment added Martin Sleziak I will just point out that the limit for tag names was increased to 35. The tag is now called (stone-cech-compactification) and there is a synonym (stone-cech] $\to$ (stone-cech-compactification).

Apr 25, 2014 at 15:25 comment added user9072 @WillieWong this is a valid criticism, and also further reason to get rid of that tag. I'll remove it right away. (Oh! It turns out it is gone anyway. Not sure if retagged or auto deleted.)
Apr 25, 2014 at 15:18 comment added Willie Wong I oppose the synonym of dirichlet to PNT. Dirichlet has proven at least two theorems in his lifetime. We shouldn't prejudice toward analytic number theory.
Feb 18, 2014 at 7:23 comment added Ricardo Andrade And while we are pluralizing tags, can we please also pluralize the tag name 'configuration-space'?
Feb 17, 2014 at 10:47 comment added user9072 @FrançoisG.Dorais a tag wiki should more or less solve this problem (I only did not write one before, since it depends a bit). But we could also create prime-number-distribution (or its plural) and synonymize both PNT and Dirichlet to it.
Feb 17, 2014 at 2:52 comment added François G. Dorais Mod When I was about to pluralize prime number theorems, I realized that the phrase is too easily interpreted as "theorems about prime numbers" rather than "theorems about the distribution of prime numbers". Thoughts?
Feb 17, 2014 at 0:56 comment added Ricardo Andrade On the other hand, the tag 'stone-cech' might be well-defined enough and sufficiently populated to not be adequate as a synonym of the tag 'compactification'. Maybe what we really need here is a new mechanism (beyond the existing synonym mechanism) for making some tags subordinate to others. In this case, we could make the tag 'stone-cech' subordinate to the tag 'compactification'.
Feb 17, 2014 at 0:54 comment added Ricardo Andrade Unfortunately, 'stone-cech-compactification' has more than 25 characters. Nevertheless, I agree that the tag 'stone-cech' would be better with a reference to compactification; perhaps 'stone-cech-compactificat'? I also agree that the tag 'compactification' should be pluralized.
