According to Jeff's answer to The [error] tag has come back to life! the error tag is blacklisted.

I've been removing errors, which is a really pointless tag, but have noticed a few strange things.

1. errors exists despite error being blacklisted.

2. Leaving errors on a question when editing results in the following error message:

   

3. The tag page of a blacklisted tag returns a 404 but the synonym of that tag uses the original tag page as its own.

   

From all of this I'm assuming that errors was a synonym of error when it was blacklisted. I think that when a tag gets blacklisted it's synonyms should be burninated or unsynonymised.

I've left the last few errors tags available for experimentation in the name of science.
