Hello all,

I accidently added tag A as synonym under tag A (accidently, on phone).

- Delete synonym gives error 500
- Unlink button gives error 422
- Delete tag gives unknown error

Might be helpful

- I can rename tag A to B and the synonym also gets edited.
- Having 0 or 1 post with tag A makes no different for the errors above.

Can someone reproduce this?
