With regard to tagging, I agree with a lot of what you say there, but I 
suspect that the first thing to do is to talk to the wiki editor about 
it.  It may be that they thought that they were just changing the wiki 
in line with actual usage, it may be that they've actually discussed it 
with lots of other people elsewhere first (just not visible at first 
glance to me).

For international tagging discussions the tagging list is probably the 
best* mailing list, but it's probably worth also mentioning on the wiki 
talk page for the tag too (and maybe the talk page for the wiki editor).

Best Regards,

Andy

* or maybe "least worst" - there's a discussion there about how terrible 
mailing list discussions are compared to controlled spaces on the 
tagging list at the moment - but that's more to do with what happens 
when people who don't agree (and don't even agree how to talk about 
things) encounter people who don't agree with each other.
