update
|
| Aug 21, 2013 at 7:01 | comment | added | user9072 | Creating it was rather trivial, so I did it MO editors' lounge. That would have been another issue, a good name...but well we can edit it later :-) | |
| Aug 21, 2013 at 6:45 | comment | added | user9072 | Yes, I thought about creating one since some time. The main issue to work out was if anybody but me would use it. :-) Other than that I think it is relatively straight forward to create a room though I do not know exactly how at this very moment. (But I will check.) | |
| Aug 20, 2013 at 22:28 | comment | added | Ricardo Andrade | Thanks, @quid. The chat room idea is truly very interesting. I think it could be very useful to allow freer discussion of these issues, which sometimes lead to long discussions in the comments :) . Are you thinking about creating the chat room yourself? Are there any issues to work out first? | |
| Aug 20, 2013 at 12:43 | comment | added | user9072 | Once this one becomes too crowed with answers likely a new one could be good. Not sure if this is yet the case. But it seems good it was reactivated by a new answer. What I thought about recently was to create a chat-room for editing/tagging related issues. | |
| Aug 20, 2013 at 6:25 | comment | added | Ricardo Andrade | @quid: Do you think it would help to create a new meta thread to discuss renaming of tags such as the ones I proposed in this answer? | |
| Jul 25, 2013 at 11:17 | comment | added | user9072 | @MichaelAlbanese umlauts and other specal characters do not work in tags; there was a discussion on the old meta if it should be kaehler instead, using the official way to transcribe umlauts, but it was decided to stick to kahler.// On the general question raised by Ricardo Andrade there is this discussion meta.mathoverflow.net/questions/390/spelling-conventions | |
| Jul 25, 2013 at 7:46 | comment | added | Ricardo Andrade | @Michael: Are umlauts (or any other accents) even allowed in tags? Even if they are, it might still be best to not use them. Does anyone else have any opinions on the umlauts/accents? | |
| Jul 25, 2013 at 7:28 | comment | added | Michael Albanese | I think I created the kahler tag, and I think your suggestion to rename it kahler-manifolds is a good one. Do you think it should be kahler-manifolds or kähler-manifolds? | |
| Jul 25, 2013 at 0:01 | comment | added | user9072 | I think so. And looking around at meta.SO somehow confirms this. For example, only some weeks ago there was this meta.stackexchange.com/questions/182097/… Now this rename was declined by a mod there, but on the grounds that it is not good and not that it is in impossible. | |

added one more tag
|
| Jul 24, 2013 at 23:48 | comment | added | Ricardo Andrade | @quid: One last question due to my ignorance. Do the moderators still have the power to rename tags? | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 23:44 | comment | added | user9072 | I think it should really be renamed (and just kahler should stop to exist). If kahler exists as synonym and somebody would use it instead of kahler-differentials it would somehow even be worse as they'd end up in kahler-manifolds. Or to put it differently why should then kahler be a synonym of kahler-manifolds and not of kahler-differentials instead. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 23:32 | comment | added | Ricardo Andrade | @quid: Do you think creating a synonym 'kahler-manifolds' <--- 'kahler' would be the appropriate action in this case? | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 23:24 | comment | added | user9072 | More expressive is an improvement, so I am in favor of the rename; for example, while there is kahler-differentials somebody not aware/not paying attention could easily use kahler for Kähler differentials, too. And, then we'd have a mess. Better to rename while it is easy than to untangle it latter. | |
