As I mentioned in my earlier comments: I was the one who [edited](https://serverfault.com/posts/730376/revisions) [your question](https://serverfault.com/questions/730376) and removed the [tag:windows-server] tag. The main reason for that was that the tag popped up in the [new tags](https://serverfault.com/tags?tab=new) overview and as EEAA explained it doesn't really improve upon the well-used version specific tags such as [tag:windows-server-2012] [tag:windows-server-2008-r2] etc. Afterwards I converted it to a synonym for the generic [tag:windows] tag, which already has the following recommendation in the tag-description which is also quite relevant for the Windows Server family operating systems : > Windows is the brand name for a series of operating systems from Microsoft. Instead of tagging a post "Windows", try to use a more specific tag, like windows-7, windows-xp or windows-server-2008-r2
