Information
- _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 3 - Optional tag based- We will add a new tag "general-linguistics" and add it to existing questions where it fits. Questions asked about languages of certain properties regardless of their genetic affiliation should be tagged with this tag. The word "general" refers to generalization beyond a specific single language.
- Less experienced posters may miss out on adding this tag, if they ask a broadly applicable question; this can be corrected by any user or moderator when noticed.
New language tags can be added by any poster on the fly. The system will not automatically recognize that they are language tags, so they may be visually styled inconsistently with other language tags until reclassified by an advanced user to the proper style.

- # Option 3 - Topic tag based
- We will add a new tag "general-linguistics" and add it to existing questions where it fits. Questions asked about languages of certain properties regardless of their genetic affiliation should be tagged with this tag. The word "general" refers to generalization beyond a specific single language.
- Less experienced posters may miss out on adding this tag, if they ask a broadly applicable question; this can be corrected by any user or moderator when noticed.
- New language tags can be added by any poster on the fly[^1]. The system will not automatically recognize that they are language tags, so they may be visually styled inconsistently with other language tags until reclassified by an advanced user to the proper style.
- [^1]: At least for now. This will most likely change once abilities are implemented.
