What other lessons could LW learn from Stackexchange/overflow?

Here are some things that I suspect make tagging on SE work well:

  • Searching by tags works well
  • You can mark some tags as favorites so that they are prioritized or excluded for you
  • Tags prominently displayed
  • Tag suggestions based on commonly used tags/words used in your post : seems like a good idea
  • Lots of people can retag posts : seems like a good idea
  • Tag wiki pages: good idea, probably would not take much work
  • Information about 'related tags'
  • Could just be that there are so many disparate topics that tags are more important
