Q&A How do I suggest edits to tags?

Q&A Shouldn't be able to delete question after any response

Q&A Assessing the 5 tag limit

Such a tag limit seems low to me, though I can't think of any specific cases in which more than 5 tags would apply. However, I'm not sure what the use in limiting this upfront is; I'm not sure it s...
