Jun 27 at 9:14 comment added Lundin Unlike lib, library did potentially add something meaningful to the question. When used in combination with another tag, it may clarify what the question is about. Not the best tag for sure, but I don't really see what harm it was doing. There's so many different forms of libraries in the context of programming, that a better tag doesn't necessarily exist in all contexts.
Jun 27 at 0:47 comment added Steve Bennett Huh, this tag is still used? Seemed like a pretty clear cut one to ditch.
Jun 26 at 20:01 comment added Jonathan Leffler Note that there is also the unix-ar tag for questions about managing libraries with the Unix ar utility — those are static libraries. It is not an active tag; the last question was asked more than a year ago. It was at one time the ar tag, but the augmented reality people ended up coopting (dominating) that tag, which is now a synonym of augmented-reality.

Oct 14, 2022 at 5:52 comment added Jonathan Leffler This tag is still around — there have been six questions in the last 7 days, all unanswered. I came across it once more because of a new question. I'm not sure what it takes to get this burnination request moving. Do we simply have to do it manually? WIth 63 upvotes and 6 downvotes on this question, it is clear that the majority of the people who've considered the issue agree it should be removed.
Sep 8, 2021 at 22:44 comment added Didier L Wait, there is a libraries tag?
Sep 8, 2021 at 18:16 comment added Braiam @CrisLuengo sadly, the tool to do that isn't exposed to moderators. Only staff.
Sep 8, 2021 at 17:14 history rollback Bhargav Rao
Rollback to Revision 4 - Let's not go out of our way and manipulate the tagname to force a pun when the other one was perfectly fine.

Sep 8, 2021 at 15:57 comment added Cris Luengo @DanIsFiddlingByFirelight I understand burnination is good excuse to review some potentially bad questions, but you could also just sit there and look at random old questions and make decisions about them. I mean, reviewing the questions with this tag is not strictly necessary. I can think of better ways to waste time.
Sep 8, 2021 at 15:54 comment added Dan Is Fiddling By Firelight @CrisLuengo bad tags typically have a lot of bad questions too that either need to be cleaned up, or that should be closed and in many cases deleted. Doing that is part of why the normal burnination process includes human review of all questions. Mass tag removal is only for exceptional cases where human review in impractical due to the number of questions involved. Even there questions with only the bad tag need addressed first.
Sep 8, 2021 at 15:26 comment added Cris Luengo Since it doesn't add useful information, a moderator could just delete the tag, no need to edit all those questions manually.
Sep 7, 2021 at 17:53 comment added Jonathan Leffler I think the lib tag should be removed. It is irksome that there are so many questions with the tag — it makes the effort of removing it that much harder.
Sep 7, 2021 at 10:55 comment added Donald Duck [frameworks] also has the same problem.

Sep 6, 2021 at 21:16 comment added Andrew T. Comparing some of the oldest "newest" and "active" questions, looks like the tag was created on this question about iOS (Jan 14 '17). The question you linked got the tag added on Jan 29 '21 instead.
