Oct 12, 2015 at 23:04 comment added Cameron Williams @MiceElf Oh well. I've suggested a handful of tag obliterations over the last couple of years. Nothing ever came of it, despite being well-received.
Oct 12, 2015 at 21:56 comment added user147263 Sigh my upvote seems to be the only one the suggested synonym has.
Feb 2, 2015 at 9:16 comment added Martin Sleziak I will add a link to the page where users can vote on this synonym: math.stackexchange.com/tags/linear-algebra/synonyms (Perhaps you might edit the information that you have suggested the synonym into your post. If you find it useful, you could also add this link. In this way, the information that the users can vote on the synonym will be visible to more users.)
Jan 26, 2015 at 20:51 comment added Cameron Williams I've suggested that (span) be made a synonym of (linear-algebra).
Jan 26, 2015 at 20:39 comment added Cameron Williams @Fundamental Makes sense. I can understand your initial viewpoint but I think users asking functional analytic questions on average use more descriptive tags than one as general as span.
Jan 26, 2015 at 20:36 comment added user147263 Once upon a time, I argued for the tag should not be synonymized to (linear-algebra) because it also comes up in (functional-analysis). But I no longer hold that view; it turns out that users asking (functional-analysis) questions don't use this tag, whether or not their problem involves span. So, I support making it a synonym of (linear-algebra).
Jan 21, 2015 at 21:27 comment added Cameron Williams For sure. I think that's a good option (just to prevent the tag from being created again, unnecessarily).
Jan 21, 2015 at 19:50 comment added Martin Sleziak This could be also solved simply by making (span) synonym of (linear-algebra). (After we make sure that it does not contain post from other topics.)
