I’m on my phone. Here are some parts

```
   posts = Post.where("raw like '%badword%')
 posts.each do |post|
 Tag.create(some stuff here) # this won't work
 end

```

If there are lots of words, you’d stick them in an arrays and loop through them. You’ll need to find an example of what fields are required to create a tag. Probably topic\_id and name.
