@MartinSleziak Actually, looking at some questions like that, I wonder whether a tag like trivia (or maybe records or statistics) would be suitable for some questions here on MO.
Probably the fact that I bumped that question by removing the tag thesis lead to some people casting reopen votes - it is now in the review queue: mathoverflow.net/review/reopen/170264
BTW thesis is now down to 6 questions. So if the removal started with 13 question on December 3, it goes at the pace about 1 question per day.

Thanks for the response! I'll keep in mind that thesis is supposed to be removed - and I'll try start retagging. (I will do at most one question per day - naturally, if others want to do more, I won't object.)

The deprecated tags abstract-algebra, discrete-mathematics and geometry are now in a kind of "limbo". I have posted some stats about the deprecated tags on September 18.
There are several tags that have been removed in the past - it might be worth checking from time to time whether some of those tags hasn't been created again. The ones I am aware of are arithmetic, calculus, classical-geometry, elementary, exact-solutions, inverse, proofs, representation, symplectic.
The tag topology is somewhat special case - it was removed, created again, and now it is a synonym of gn.general-topology.
As mentioned by François G. Dorais in chat, there is currently a synonym (topology) $\to$ (gn.general-topology). Based on his comment, it seems to be a test to see whether this will lead to some incorrectly tagged questions or not. — Martin Sleziak Nov 21, 2017 at 9:45
Maybe decomposition-theorem will be added to the above list at some point: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/10243/2018/8/23
There are also a few tags that are often used incorrectly, so it is useful to check whether a question is tagged correctly if it has one of these tags. I was able to think of: books, covering, divisors, tag-removed, untagged, decomposition-theorem: mathoverflow.net/questions/tagged/…
