- _This is one of four (or more) alternative answers._
- _(I am posting the alternatives separately and simultaneously to allow separate voting and commenting. They represent elaborations of potential courses of action touched upon by comments on the question post. Comments on the answer post can now be used to refine the respective options further; new parallel answers are welcome, too.)_
- # Option 1 - Category based
- The current "Q & A" category will be renamed to "Languages Q&A", initially retaining questions existing at the point of the rename. A new category, initially empty, will be created. It will be named "Linguistics Q&A".
- The tag set will be shared between all of "Languages Q&A", "Linguistics Q&A", and "Resources".
- New users will tend to post to "Languages Q&A" because that will (continue to) be the leftmost, default category. Questions typical for linguistic research will tend to land in "Linguistics Q&A".
Moderators do not have a UI for moving of posts between categories. New questions will be generally kept where they were originally posted, unless new tools are developed or discovered.

- We can also move old linguistics posts if this is set up.
