I just noticed an old post to which I added the .subjective tag. That tag is no longer there and the edit history shows no changes made since, so whatever happened to the tag? Might this be a bug?

From this point on, meta-tagging is explicitly discouraged.

Iā€™m pleased to announce that, as of tonight, we have stormed the castle gates and systematically eradicated the most common meta-tags ā€” [beginner], [subjective], and [best-practices] ā€” from Stack Overflow, Server Fault, and Super User.
