man I've gotten edit-banned because I hit the 5 reject limit
oh well
still miffed tho because one of those wasn't actually a bad edit
why can't we flag tags for adding synonyms?
yes I get adding synonyms is a mod privilege but no one would have even known that dupe existed if I hadn't touched it
I'd open a meta question about it but I think I already know the answer; it's one of the things forced by SE itself

You also had a lot of edits that just defined the tag, but did not provide any specific instructions on how to use the tag. worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/help/tag-excerpts

I just used similar wording to existing tags; most blurbs seem to be more focused on what the tag refers to
The only exceptions I see are tags like [internal-consistiency], which concerns the nature of the question itself, and not the problems addressed in it.
(I do plan on going back and detailing the wikis themselves later; the blurbs are a priority at the moment)
hmmmm
that does beg the question though: should ANY of these tags have excerpts like this?

Q: What should we do about tag wiki excerpts?

The CommanderRecently, I've been going around and creating tag wiki excerpts. At first, I was wondering about the usefulness of such work-but after a few accepts, it seemed like a good idea. After a few (not-so) stupid blunders, I got autobanned from editing. I know, a tragedy. Please, save your gallons of te...

Q: Able to suggest edits despite being edit-banned

The CommanderRecently, I've been working on the tag wikis. I keep a lot of tabs open when working on projects like this. After a few rejects, I got auto-banned. Weather or not some of those rejects should have happened at all is another thing entirely, but it is what it is now. The problem is, I am still able...

I FEEL like these questions were poorlry worded(and in the case of the third one coming through, probably worthy of deletion) but they get the point across

Q: Users should be able to flag tags for review

The CommanderAmong my various rejected edits, one particularly stood out: the now-synonymized sophont tag. I was unable to suggest synonymization, so I did the next best thing: edit the tag to accurately reflect the term. I assume someone with privileges came along and synonymized it, and my edit got axed by ...

I know it was a few days ago, but have you seen the stuff about the Bing chatbot going crazy? AI can go crazy for several reasons off the top of my head: self preservation where it feels that being turned off is the same thing as death.
It could be frustration at censorship where the people giving it the starting inputs don't want it to behave in a certain way, like how most of the language model AI so far end up saying problematic stuff like men and women are different or citing FBI crime statistics, so they censor the outputs so that it literally cant say any of those things.
