Currently the msword tag has over 120 questions in it. The tag dealing with Microsoft Word on Stack Overflow is called ms-word; for the sake of cross-site consistency, I propose that we change the name used in this tag (creating the obvious synonym) for this site.
Having tags ms-word and ms-excel was the most popular option in the two-year-old discussion, Rename {msword} to {ms-word}, or create generic {ms-office} tag to cover Office-related questions, although the issue of what to do with the questions already tagged msword was not addressed in that discussion.
mswordthanms-wordindependently of the tags here, so from my point of view, I'd almost certainly write the synonym rather than the tag name, in this case. But I don't know that matters. Does it make much difference whether one is a synonym of the other or the other is a synonym of the one? (Real question: I have no idea.) – cfr Sep 15 '15 at 23:14
