| Dec 4, 2018 at 5:33 | comment | added | YiFan Tey | @TakahiroWaki no need to get worked up. The question was intended to ask for the explanation of the simple phenomenon, but if it's opened up discussion about the tagging system on MSE, thats a good thing as well! | |
| Dec 4, 2018 at 5:30 | comment | added | Takahiro Waki | @smci Sorry. you misunderstand the question. This question doesn't argue about the sangaku tag. This question mention "What is this phenomenon?" . The rude comment is your three comments. | |
| Dec 4, 2018 at 0:05 | comment | added | smci | @TakahiroWaki: no the comments are not at all 'useless', and no the general question wasn't 'solved'. Which meta-tags on which specific SE site are good/bad/approved/discouraged is very much a live topic. And 'your comments are useless' comes across as rude, even if it wasn't also incorrect, which it is. It would be good to get guidance on which meta-tags on Math.SE the community finds necessary. Hence my comments. | |

| Dec 3, 2018 at 18:05 | comment | added | smci | FYI, by analogy there are >>120 different genres of Japanese logic puzzles, just for constraint-satisfaction logic puzzles on nxn grid. We can certainly use those words in plain-text, but I wouldn't create a tag except where merited. Or maybe just a generic tag: 'japanese-logic-puzzles'. ('japanese-geometry-puzzles', etc.) | |
| Dec 3, 2018 at 17:58 | comment | added | smci | Also, 'sangaku' is a meta-tag about a problem/puzzle's cultural/historical origin, we do not have tags like 'vedic' or 'tangram', although we do have rubiks-cube. Should we ask more generally about cultural meta-tags? (and not this particular user's behavior in tagging?) I mean, we don't tag graph-theory questions "Seven-Bridges-of-Königsberg". | |
| Dec 3, 2018 at 17:56 | comment | added | smci | Please edit a reference to sangaku into your question. | |
| Nov 24, 2018 at 12:09 | comment | added | GEdgar | I think (sangaku) is a fine tag to have here. But 8 edits in one day is far too much for an eager editor to do. | |
| Nov 23, 2018 at 15:36 | comment | added | amWhy | Overkill on the editing, to add the tag to other posts, I'd say. Slow down, @Jean-ClaudeArbaut | |

| Nov 23, 2018 at 7:49 | comment | added | Martin Sleziak | I have pinged the tag-creator - so the at least they are aware of this post on meta. | |

since this seems to be related to the creation of a new tag, I have added the (tags) tag; feel free to retag the question if you think that this tag is not a good fit

| Nov 23, 2018 at 2:28 | comment | added | hardmath | I reviewed (and accepted) the tag creation. The word sangaku is of Japanese origin according to its Wikipedia article. It seems worthwhile to me to learn something about this tradition. | |
