Can anyone think of a solution to the problem of the, to me, general tag sql being adopted by the specific sql-server (which also has sql-server-2005, tsql, and sql-server-2008) ?
Here is an example. It is not a good one because of mistagging, but it is recent, and illustrates the point.
EDIT: The above is an even worse example than I thought.
The tags are: sql ms-access asp
With a comment by Mitch Wheat: "question states MySQL, tag says SQL Server"
This is by no means an uncommon interpretation and is leading, I believe, to SQL Server answers being given to any question tagged sql, even where another tag would suggest that the question requires a different flavour of SQL.
EDIT: Here is a better example, which I think illustrates the point I am trying to make.
The tags are sql
ms-access
and one respondent breaks his/her answer down into two parts, one answer for ms-access
, one for sql
, which use SQL Server syntax.
