So @falco - sorry I think I could have expressed this issue better if I had understood it better (as I think I do now thanks to your help so far…) The issue is that even if a tag is not attached to any topic, it still EXISTS (and is selectable by a poster). So it needs to be deleted if we don’t want anyone to use that tag. However, if a tag is not attached to any topic, it no longer appears in the /tags page so cannot be accessed to delete it. Does that make more sense (as an explanation of the issue…)? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/deleting-tags-in-a-round-about-manner/85584)._
