@JoErNanO about the 'uk-visit-visa- tag... There is a thing with @hippietrail that he likes to fiddle about with tags. Bless his heart and I am not flaming him. But he will fiddle with tags and 'uk-visit-visa- reflects a well intended improvement.
Ah ok so it was something the community agreed on at some point? I was guessing it was more of a random tag created by a new users, which ended up being used by a bunch of people.
Since it's no longer Summer 2015 and the predecessor to this question contained a reference to a specific point in time, it's time for a new Tag Renaming topic.
So let's once more compile a list of tags to be renamed to make it easier for the mods.

I had a gold tag badge in 'uk', but it appears to have become confounded (recently) with the 'united-kingdom' tag badge, where I have been given a bronze tag badge. Apparently this occurred by some synonym legerdemain, possibly well-intended.
Technically I understand how this could happen. Thes...
See, I'm torn. Migrant no. Refugee yes. Why? Because a refugee is a temporary migrant. I.e. the implicit covenant is that, once the problem that caused them to seek refuge is solved, refugees should return home. Or at least wish to do so.
A migrant is looking for a permanent stay.
Frankly, I find it unfair that I have to jump through immigration hoops to get working visas around the world, whereas with migrants we are clearly violating immigration policies.
@JoErNanO you're welcome. we mustn't get too anachronistic after all.
Hygiene tags!
@GayotFow Please clarify why "UK visit visas" don't warrant a tag but many other kinds of visas do. If you've illustrated what the difference is I must've missed that. I only made such a tag because many questions used that wording which looked pretty specific to me.
I've never noticed terms like "EU visit visas", "US visit visas", etc. So I thought that must be a specifically named type of visa. But hey, I'm not the visa expert around here. I just try to tame the tag undergrowth from time to time.
The term gets at least two orders of magnitude more google hits than equivalent ones i make up and search for other regions using the same wording pattern
i didn't make the tag because i thought it was a lovely adjective. i made it because it seemed to be the correct name for a type of visa. all quite opaque to me.
but yeah maybe it's just a quaint wording that indians like to use but isn't actually official. i dunno.
it's like complaining about the "air travel" tag having the word "travel" in it because breathing air would be off topic and therefore we must only have "air" as a tag
"UK visitor visa" seems to be almost as common out on the net, but i'm not sure if that wording was as popular here. it didn't stand out to me at the time.
I'm currently road tripping across the Gold Coast. I find myself in Byron Bay, NSW, Australia and am looking for accommodation. I rented a small camper van and don't really wish to pay 70+ Australian Dollars for a camping spot in a caravan park.

@hippietrail It was made very clear that your changes were well-intended and nobody has flamed you. The topic was raised and hence discussed. I pinged you out of courtesy. The point of fact is that you introduced a tag that creates unwelcome paradox.
@HeidelBerGensis, I bet there are many, as language schools are a good tourist magnet, but do select your location on the local version of the language. Many different languages and even more different accents.
@Willeke I asked a spanish guy i met recently, he told me that no worried about the accent.. as long as the other person i am talking to is native then he/she will be able to understand me and reply me in a way i will understand..
