Help answer this question below.
Categories are used to organize the questions based on user decisions - when the question is asked, or when they flag them. Those flags are then checked and either accepted or rejected by staff moderators.
Tags are computer-generated, and oft-times, at this time, wrong. For example, almost any question with "Answerbag" or "AB" in it will get tags having to do with Mortgage loans, etc. Tags are more of a Web2.0 thing. You also cannot select other tags... Just report them as bad. Staff will then review and, hopefully, change them to more valid/correct tags.
Both are used to organize the site in different ways.
Do you enjoy this site or do you just use it to kill your time?

You're reading What is a 'bad tag' when you are reporting a question or answer? How does it differ from 'wrong category'?
