By default only TL3 (or more) can create tags.  
To change this setting search for `min trust to create tag` in your admin panel.

Per @robmc there is some UI work we should do here

> There’s a possible confusion created here by the fact that users below the default minimum trust level still see `search or create` even though they may not be able to create the tag yet.
> 
> Is this something that might be configured so the text only says “or create” if they have the necessary privileges?
