| Mar 31, 2018 at 8:40 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | "However, in the example you linked, the original tags that were removed weren't good or even previously used tags" Once again, whether the tags are good or bad is irrelevant, I am very much against the methods used because I think this'll only lead to trouble in the end. I would very much like to hear the complete community's opionion on this. Not just that of 3people. | |

| Mar 30, 2018 at 22:06 | comment | added | Mithrandir24601 Mod | You've got some valid reasons for when mass tag editing is a bad idea, sure. However, in the example you linked, the original tags that were removed weren't good or even previously used tags, so should have been removed. Also, that question was new when edited. It would have been trivially better if @Blue put the correct tag in as well during that first edit, but considering how close the two edits were, I don't understand what the actual problem is. No-one managed to get the symbols right until several edits, so I don't believe that's the problem either - do you have any other examples? | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 16:14 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Alright, see my answer. Please argue on that one instead of these comments. | |

| Mar 30, 2018 at 16:03 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Sigh. Alright. I thought slightly critical suggestions need not be argued for as if they're new physical theories, but all right. I'll go write why I'm feeling strong about this. But the place for it isn't in the comments. | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:40 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue No I do not. This is merely my opinion. I don't have to prove this. | |

| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:37 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue The reason for this that I consider the 90% harmless at best and the 10% actively harmful. I'm afraid that your methods, if left unchecked, do more harm than good. | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:34 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Oh and you seem to have made an answer here. Care to post it so we can vote on it? | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:34 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Nor would I advise it to be a good way to spend time for others... | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:29 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Yes, but I'd rather not be the one running around after you to correct those mistakes. | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:24 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | Oh and one more thing: Be aware that the interpretation of a downvote on this question is something like 'this isn't important'. If you disagree with my position, then you should specify this in an answer and vote on that one. | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:23 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | I'm not going to link for an array of "edited by Blue" on the main page (some weren't that new, IMO, but whatever). I think this example makes it clear what is happening and why I would like to avoid it. | |

| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:22 | comment | added | Discrete lizard | @Blue Oh, I'm aware of your motivations and goals. I just think that your methods are suboptimal. | |
| Mar 30, 2018 at 15:00 | comment | added | Mithrandir24601 Mod | Can you post some examples please? Bumping a lot of old posts to the front at once doesn't sound great, but I don't see anything wrong with spreading a few throughout the day | |
