We had recently several questions about the sidebar containing related questions. I have created related-questions tag on meta and I have copied the tag-wiki from meta.SE.

Arthur asks about oeis:

A: Tag cleanup 2014

I suggest that we remove the oeis tag. Most of the 13 current questions in the tag deal with properties of specific sequences listed there (and so the sequences-and-series is perfectly suitable). Of the remaining four, three are likely off-topic on math.SE and can be deleted: Calculate with s...

I have pinged the user who (probably) created this tag. It might be good to know also the opinion of the tag creator. — Martin Sleziak 4 hours ago

How about we replace (oeis) with the pair (online-resources) + (sequences-and-series) for those questions listed? This tag pair correlates with OEIS pretty well. Then their topicality can be decided separately, without getting in the way of tagging decisions. — Thursday 23 mins ago

I certainly agree with Thursday, that the question whether or not those questions are on-topic is not that relevant for the decision whether the tag should be kept or not.

If I understand correctly the tag-excerpt and tag-wiki for holder-spaces, it is supposed to include questions about Lipschitz functions.

The tag-excerpt says: Use this tag for concepts related to Hölder continuity (a generalisation of Lipschitz continuity) and the related Hölder spaces.

So I have suggested lipschitz-functions as a synonym.

Now I have noticed that the tag-exceprt for boolean-algebra contains the sentence: For Boolean logic use the tag propositional logic.

However, it seems to me that consensus of the community was that this tag could serve for questions about propositional logic:

Q: About (boolean-algebra) tag

Boolean algebra has two common meanings - an order-theoretic structure or "algebra of logic", i.e. basic calculus with truth values. Currently the wiki excerpt looks like this: Boolean algebras are structures which behave similar to a power set with complement, intersection and union. Quest...
