Stack Overflow:
- svn 4523
- subversion 9
Server Fault:
- svn 260
- subversion 161

13Or just implement tag synonyms and make the two mean the same thing.– Justin 'jjnguy' NelsonCommented Dec 2, 2009 at 18:49

8@jjnguy: Agreed. Those who like that idea should upvote this: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2779/…– ベレアー アダムCommented Dec 2, 2009 at 18:53

It's the request that keeps on requesting.– randomCommented Dec 7, 2009 at 10:12

1@jjinguy: I think synonyms are a bad idea, but automatic re-naming at edit/creation time would be better.– Joel CoehoornCommented Dec 7, 2009 at 17:40

Could someone please do it on Server Fault too?– JonikCommented Dec 16, 2009 at 13:14

@Pol, it's interesting that meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2779/… now stands strong at 68 upvotes.– perbertCommented Mar 23, 2010 at 18:21
I did the ones on SO by hand.
Since there were only 9 questions, next time you can take care of them yourself since you have enough rep. See here for guidelines on when to retag and when to ask for help. I don't mean to be snarky, but for a really trivial number of questions, the mods don't need to be called in and do extra work that we as a community can accomplish in seconds. We have the power, we should use it.
The merge on SF, on the other hand, should be done by the mod's automagic non-bumping merge process since there are quite a few that need retagging.

Doing that many retags manually is annoying because captcha kicks in all the time.– Juha SyrjäläCommented May 2, 2010 at 11:11

@Juha: After a while, you get used to it. meta.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/captcha– Jon SeigelCommented May 2, 2010 at 15:13
Merged on Serverfault as well.
