Esri have once again decided to rename an existing product - the API previously known as the ArcGIS JavaScript API is now the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript.
Do we need to rename the [arcgis-javascript-api-4] tag?

I think that tag needs a rename, which moderators can do by using their merge tool. That tool optionally makes synonyms of the old names which are merged.
I propose that we create a new tag named arcgis-maps-sdk-javascript with these tags to be made synonyms of it:
- arcgis-javascript-api (2,034 questions)
- arcgis-javascript-api-4 (279 questions)
We discussed the value of the arcgis-javascript-api-4 tag staying separate at Synonymizing ArcGIS API for JavaScript version tags. Since that time, I have gone further away from seeing any value in version tags because I think all version information should be included within the question body instead.
