I agree, merging would be useful to reduce the tag clutter.
How about a weighting system for the member taggers themselves? For example: a long term tagger (1 year or more) AND who does tags meaningful to the AW community (criteria would be a substantial percentage of thumbs ups). Up votes, or down votes, by these "heavyweight taggers" carry more clout!? So it work like this, Heavyweight Tagger Redblaka sees a tag that is bad/false/nonsense. He votes it down. That counts as 10 (or 100) down votes.
Good idea or bad idea?
We should keep posting these ideas for improvements to the tag system. I am sure AW will be able to address the tags at some point.
I betcha the headaches with the site admin or back-end is their highest priority.
