Okay, so the limiting difference between the harmonic series and the natural logarithm is known as the Euler-Mascheroni constant, $\gamma= 0,577$. My question is: is there any base for the logarithm so that the limiting difference has other results? Is it possible for the partial sums of the ha...
@MartinSleziak yes, it was the intent to create it as a synonym. I created it as it’s own tag by accident. My apologies. — Descartes Before the Horse1 min ago
@DescartesBeforetheHorse If that's the case, then we'll need a moderator or some user with sufficient score in the tag to suggest/create the tag synonym. I would suggest to continue this discussion in chat (if needed), so that we do not leave here too many comments unrelated to this question. — Martin Sleziak12 secs ago

At the moment, there are two tags which are related to the number $e$.
The e has been synonym of exponential function for a long time.1
A new eulers-number was created in January 2019.
Question. Should there be a separate tag for Euler's number $e$? Or is it better to have both e and eulers-num...
@WillieWong Since you were the mod who created the synonym between e and exponential-function, I wanted to let you know about the question on meta (see above), in case you have some comments on these tags.
@YvesDaoust As far as I can tell, you were the user who created eulers-number tag. (In this question, you have also created the tag-excerpt.)
Therefore I thought it might be reasonable to let you know that that there is a question on meta discussing this tag and related tags. (I have sent you an invitation in chat so that you get some notification about these comments. I hope the notification reaches you.)
Depending on the outcome of the discussion on meta, it's possible that eulers-number might be removed or synonymized. In order to preserve it, here is revision history for tag-excerpt and tag-wiki.
Maybe it§s a bit lazy on my side - but if we want such synonym, it would be easier if it was created by a moderator than going through discussion on meta and/or suggesting the synonym and then voting by regular users.
$\textbf{Proposal}:$ Create the tag Quotient-ring
Searching for "Quotient ring" is:q returns 1010 results.
There is also a tag quotient-group, so I thought that there may be one for rings too, given that is common to see a lot of questions about identifying quotient rings with some known ring,...
There is an obvious connection between $e$ and the exponential function $e^x$ (in the strict sense - could also be $a^x$). But the one is a number, important enough to deserve specific study, and the other a function. There must be a substantial corpus on both topics.
I would vote for a tag "$e$...
I have no strong feelings about whether there should be a separate tag about the number 'e'. (It was convenient way back when, when most of the questions tagged 'e' is about the function $e^x$.)
I do think that the names can be confusing, whenever something has to do with Euler.
Maybe, if we ...
@MartinSleziak the synonym is in principle alright, but the tag eulers constant should go; it's confusing eulers-constant and eulers-number. To note the former seems to be misused with some frequency.

Proposal: Remove euler-mascheroni-constant. It's a duplicate of eulers-constant
