##What can I do when I find improper tagging paterns?

I sometimes notice improper tagging patterns, for example, today I noticed a pattern of posts involving [tag:fast-math] which did not include that tag.

Later, while reviewing and editing these posts I noticed a pattern of users tagging their questions with [tag:optimization] when they should be using [tag:compiler-optimization].

  • What can I do when I notice improper tagging patterns affecting a large number of posts?
    (Other than reviewing the affected posts)

  • Is there any criteria I should adhere to with regards to editing?

  • Are there any side effects to concentrated editing that I should know about?
