Missing Tag

Has anyone noticed that the Shakespeare tag leading to this group and others is missing. It was first renamed from Shakespeare to William Shakespeare without a word being said. Then after a while, William Shakespeare disappeared, too. As far as I am aware, there is now no tag that leads to this group.

Missing where?

Both Shakespeare: https://www.librarything.com/groups/tag/Shakespeare and William Shakespeare: https://www.librarything.com/groups/tag/William+Shakespeare lead here and are linked on the first page of the group.

>3 Podras.:

That page does not list all group tags. I don't know what criteria is used to choose which ones to display, but there is no way that that page shows all the tags used on every group.

At the moment "William Shakespeare" is in the middle of the third line from the bottom for me in this cloud.

As >4 lilithcat: said, this is not "All tags" but a calculated cloud. I am not sure if it is "most used" or "recently used" or whatever but the reason why William Shakespeare replaced Shakespeare at some point was not because someone did something to it intentionally and silently but because whatever calculation decided that the other one is more prominent.

It may also have something to do with combined tags and the fact that someone combined "Shakespeare" with "culture" (don't ask...)

I suspect some complete idiot amalgamated it with Culture

It needs returning

And no "William Shakespeare" was never more "prominent". It was used by scarcely anybody other than Crypto-Willobie

Really? Crypto-Willobie may have used it more than anyone.

However: "Crypto-Willobie (2423), TheHumbleOne (603), gentlemania (151), jensenmk82 (148), CSUTheatreDance (131), StEdwardsCollege (120), the_red_shoes (111), kbuchanan (74), Emily.D (74), Kjuhase (58), andejons (58), martinmdq (50), theresearcher (50), RobertDay (48), Ninty-Nine (43), SeriousGrace (40), StuffWThingLibrary (38), Problem_Girl (37), fnkelley (37), jon1lambert (37), Wolfsong (35) ... and 6,656 other members"

I wouldn't call more than 6600 members "scarcely anybody".

I'm only in there because I couldn't find a list for Shakespeare at all. There were untold user of "Shakespeare" all of which were subsumed, and frankly I don't know what "Culture" is doing there at all as a catch all.

>5 AnnieMod: At the moment, William Shakespeare is there for me, too in tiny tiny tiny print. It wasn't there when I originally posted and hadn't been for more than a week. Might there be some automated activity tracker that decides what to show and what to hide? We have been pretty quiet lately.

>4 lilithcat: Is there some place that does list all tags?

I used to use the tag "Shakespeare the player from Stratford".

Not that I know of, but I could be wrong. It would be a ridiculously long list, though; the Zeitgeist Overview page says, "Tags added 163,024,779"

I've a good mind to add one for the Earl of Oxford to see who salutes

if the real author of "Shakespeare's" works could hear you, he'd bust a gut laughing.
