-1, no the wiki is documenting the actual usage of tags, it is not an
authority to change the common usage of tags, but to document it. As
you can see by numbers "soccer" is outreaching "football" by factor
12. Changing the wiki would actually be an insult against the users
that map how the consensus is (was?).
