yes, it is a wiki, but I appreciate that he's asking here before making a change that will affect many pages. Just because everybody has write access does not mean changes shouldn't be discussed beforehand (e.g. it happens a lot that people silently, and often not instantly noticed by others, change the definition of introduced tags, creating hereby confusion amongst other contributors who then read it. This might even lead to deprecation of tags because it becomes unclear which of the parallel meanings does apply).
