Rather than there not ever being a [tag:jon-skeet] tag, it seems from the [comment by @Glorfindel][1] that: > it has been created quite often and then it gets deleted by regulars > (read: the regulars remove it from all questions and then it gets > deleted by the system as an unused tag). This indicates that the reason there is not a [tag:jon-skeet] tag is that the community sees no case for its existence and burninates it whenever it is re-created. Rather than creating it or repeated burnination it seems to me like [blacklisting][2] it may be more appropriate.
