USING THIS TAG IS NOT THE SAME THING AS ASKING ON STACK OVERFLOW. YOU ARE ON META STACK EXCHANGE, WHERE MOST PROGRAMMING QUESTIONS ARE OFF-TOPIC. Questions specific to stackoverflow.com should be asked on meta.stackoverflow.com; such questions will be closed here. This is for questions about the Stack Overflow site that still relate to the SE network as a whole. Questions about Stack Overflow (the company) should be tagged [company] instead.

Should "global.asa" tag renamed to "global-asa" just like "global-asax"? and also blacklist ...

I don't think so. If we're going to change those tags, then asp.net should become asp-net, which I also disagree with. Hyphens should be used, IMO, to replace spaces, rather than full stops.

The 'kill-ie6' tag, is it worth keeping? [closed]
