<p>Several tag-related tasks require moderator attention. How well do you feel our community deals with them presently? Would you be able &amp; willing to improve the situation (if it is needed)? How?</p>

<ol>
<li><p><strong>Tag burnination.</strong> Mods can ask SE admins to delete (aka burninate) a tag. We have a list of tags that should be deleted: <a href="https://stats.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/3031">Tag-candidates for removal</a>, but no action has ever taken place. See my unanswered question: <a href="https://stats.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/3147">Dear mods, what should be our protocol for tag burnination?</a></p></li>
<li><p><strong>Tag synonym merging.</strong> We have large number of tag synonyms that are not merged. There is a good case for merging all established tag synonyms as a matter of course (only mods can do that): <a href="https://stats.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2790">Should all our non-merged tag synonyms be merged (or removed)?</a> -- but it is not being done.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Tag synonyms.</strong> We maintain a list of suggested synonyms: <a href="https://stats.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1200">Current tag synonym candidates</a>, and most good suggestions do eventually get implemented, but sometimes it takes ages to pull through and often requires substantial effort to organize enough votes, whereas mods could implement it easily.</p></li>
