<p>I edited the question to change the tag.  The issue is somewhat ambiguous, but the question asks about estimating a proportion, so I put the <a href="https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/proportion" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged &#39;proportion&#39;" rel="tag">proportion</a> tag on it.  I think this is the first thing to do when a tag is inappropriately applied to a question.  </p>

<p>Relative to this specific tag-inappropriate usage, the tag excerpt has usage guidance that is clear enough, IMO. I suspect people just don't read the excerpts. If someone adds the tag incorrectly anyway, I would probably just edit. If you want, you can also leave a comment.</p>
