Tag descriptions are now planned:

> [@Add Title and Description to Tags](https://meta.discourse.org/t/add-title-and-description-to-tags/125187/4):

> We’re revisiting this – I now think we should have a description for tags here, but I have mixed feelings if we need both a “short” and “long” description. What do you think @neil @sam @eviltrout ? The description could be managed from the Info button on the tag page, along with the existing controls for renaming, synonyms, and deletion.

_Pinning topics within tags_ however is not part of this afaik. We should create a dedicated topic for that separate feature once tag descriptions have landed.
