Should we allow the esri
tag for questions not about the company, but rather about its products? Currently it is being used to tag questions related to Esri products.
The tags on questions tagged esri
that I could find at time of writing are listed for convenience (since currently no questions are listed when clicking on a tag ) :
esri
arcobjects
development
esri
arcobjects
arcgis-server
(wasarcgis.server
)esri
file-formats
mxd
lyr
(relates to formats used by ArcGIS)development
esri
arcobjects
.net
esri
spatial-database
geodatabase
arcsde
esri
open-source
dem
spatial-analyst
(a question which asks how do I do this without esri spatial analyst)esri
arcgis
personal-gdb
ms-access
mdb
esri
arcgis
.net
ags-9.3.1
Pretty all of these questions are tagged with a specific Esri product or API as well as the generic Esri tag.
Is there, therefore, any merit in retaining a generic Esri tag?
Note that stackoverflow.com currently has 851 questions tagged microsoft
, 7,667 questions tagged visual-studio-2008
and 96,362 questions tagged c#
.
How do I do *x* with ArcMap?
