Suggestion (Re to Jonathan Aquilina)

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
If a page is sooo bad that it's cluttered by so many tags then users need to be warned that there are a lot of problems with the page and tags are quite a pretty way of doing that.  There are a lot of good tools that could cause problems but not using them causes more.  

If a page has a lot of tags then 1 way to avoid them is for people to get involved and edit the page to fix one or more of the problems [shrugs].  Not sure we should really try to hide the problems.  Also certain users might see a certain combination of tags as being something they can easily work-around but would probably be annoyed if they hadn't been alerted to the need to work-around.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
