Hi @Heather_Dudley, I am starting to understand how I can use tags to get close to this one. So thank you again for your reply.

I see that, from the tag summary page, if you create a new post, the tag is automatically there. Do you do anything to be sure the users don’t delete the tag from a new topic by accident?

In other words, I’m trying to figure out how to keep users from deleting the first tag that shows up when they create a topic from the tag page (while still allowing them to add/remove other tags).
