What should be done about the books tag?

Question

I just reviewed some unanswered questions to get on the list for the next clean up. I stumbled upon the books tag, the tag wiki says:

books is for questions which deal with books about TeX, LaTeX and other topics of this site. For questions regarding design and layout of books use book-design instead.

There are currently 116 questions marked. I started with the newest answers first, and most of them should be tagged book instead. I collected the links to questions are are correctly tagged (unexpectedly many I have to say). Some of them should maybe tagged documentation, but this is ok for me.

The second part needs attention because neither books nor book apply.

116 - 41 - 13 = 62

62 questions that could be retagged to book. Unfortunately, i didn't collect the links to them. Would have saved some time.

What do we do? Retag them in the next two weeks? tohecz retagged the space questions a while ago. Are there any alternatives coming to mind?

The topic was raised in a little different manner a while back: The {books} and {book-design} tags

Answer 1

I think we have here a tag that is so broad as to be meaningless. As suggested in a comment, book should presumably apply to things specific to the book class in analogy to article or report. On the other hand, I'm not really sure what books means: it might be books about TeX, creating books, etc. I'd therefore suggest that one goes in favour of either book-design or documentation, as appropriate. Once that is done we can deal with books by making it a synonym of one of the two 'better' tags.
