How can “tag antonyms” — ambiguous tags with multiple distinct meanings — best be nominated for disambiguation and/or bifurcation?

Question

icc is attached to SO questions about one of two distinct things:

• The proprietary super-optimized Intel C/C++ Compilers, or
• Color-management theory and practice having to do with ICC profiles (named for their parent governing standards organization, the International Color Consortium)

I myself don't know the ICC compiler from Adam but I have plenty to offer w/r/t the ICC color-profile file format. A glance through the question list reveals a litany of posts from enthusiastic specialists, each of whom have one or another form of “ICC” expertise, but never both.

Unlike many ambiguous-tag scenarios, there is really no overlap between the two realms of inquiry in this case. I don't think there's a single value-add to the tag's role representing these two domains; at the very least, when discussing homonyms/synonyms/etc like these, one can typically wring out some forced and unfunny “ICC/ICC” joke, but I've got nothing in this case.

Even though my reputation falls short of the minimum balance one needs to make tag-wiki edits, I can still write up and submit tag-wiki copy changes for review — like many of my peers, I have taken advantage of this. I don't believe there's a way to suggest other actions, like disambiguation. If that is by design, or not, that's fine either way for me; I'm only bringing this up here to illustrate the one issue with icc.

By posting here on meta. Congrats, that's what you've just done. Mission accomplished!

There are just over 100 questions in icc. That's low enough that we don't really need diamond mods to help, but enough that we'll want to build a bit of consensus before taking action. The action I'm going to advocate in this answer is:

• Replace icc with color-profile on questions talking about color profiles.
• Rename icc to intel-c-compiler, either by hand by editing questions, or by asking for help from a diamond mod. A synonym wouldn't be out of the question either.
