There seems to be a class of question that is more than one that would be asked by someone who really isn't a sysadmin or is just starting their career (where the [beginner] tag is very appropriate.

Something like a middle ground for someone to use who is by no means an IT beginner but they are starting to work on a technology that is new to them. Something like [fundamentals] so that there isn't the connotation that goes with the [beginner] tag.

Something that would give us a middle ground where someone wouldn't have to preface a bunch of questions with "hey I'm new to this tech, not IT in general."

Do you guys (and gals) see any value in that type of tag, and how would you define its use?
