I just find duplicate node titles to be a pain.
And that's why [id://nnnn] was invented. Use it. Stop tagging your articles. Tell others to stop tagging theirs, now that we have both authors in search results and unique-ID'ed references. And I'll stop tagging mine.

But you have to make it "a request from the gods", or it won't be followed, knowing how things get done around here.

But don't break my style of tagging just because it's different. That's what I object to: I seem to be being singled out, while others continue to be permitted to tag without hesitation. Unfair.

Would you rather I tag each of my responses with (PLEASE STOP VANITY TAGGING)? I might just start doing that to get the point across. Tagging was useful a year ago. It's persisted only because nobody realizes why it started. Let's stop it now!
