As far as I could see, there's no option to flag tag wikis (I'd guess because they have to get approved by 5000+ rep users in the first place). I do think it would be useful to be able to flag these, so that we don't have to create list-your-bad-tags posts on meta.

What I think is that perhaps if there are some audits that simulate edits adding very minor tags, such as the ones listed here, these extra audits would help the reviewers spot these minor edits more often, and therefore prevent these kinds of minor edits from being accepted so often.

Short on rep? Find 1000 questions, no matter how old they are, and enrich them with some bullshit tag like image or div. Get them rubber-stamped by three reviewers and enjoy your free rep! —Pëkka's bounty message on this question

I am aware that the bounty on this question is looking for sources, and I only have one, but I think this might be useful to share anyway. I am not sure about if these are good enough suggestions to be feature-requests on their own though.
