Feb 27, 2023 at 7:18 comment added muru @cocomac sure, I'll edit after the next Roomba run for deleted tags
Feb 27, 2023 at 7:17 comment added cocomac @muru I noticed that you are removing the python-wheel tag. I don’t mind that you’re removing it (it seemed reasonable to add it IMO, but I don’t feel strongly about it), but once you’re done, would you mind editing this Meta answer to reflex that said tag is gone?
Feb 18, 2023 at 15:10 comment added Rishon_JR But let's see after a few months @muru . If nothing happens then we will remove the tag(Most likely).
Feb 18, 2023 at 13:33 comment added muru @RishonJR that doesn't necessarily mean the tag is required either - unless there are users who're following the tag, there is nothing particularly useful that the tag does that you can't do with a search. It's just noise. I notice that no one is piping up about following the tag.
Feb 18, 2023 at 12:26 comment added Rishon_JR I do agree @muru , but creating python wheels doesn't necessarily mean that the tag is not required (There are Ubuntu-specific wheels as well).

Feb 16, 2023 at 4:36 comment added muru Yes, but (a) creating debs and snaps for Ubuntu are relevant questions for us, but creating Python wheels would in general be something to be asked on Stack Overflow (as opposed to simply installing them, which would be covered by software-installation and python), and (b) tags that nobody follows and curates are how we end up in situations like this in the first place
Feb 16, 2023 at 4:00 comment added cocomac @muru That would work as well. I think a dedicated tag would be better as it is a dedicated/specific format, not just installing Python software. We also have a [deb] tag as well, which is a somewhat similar case. SO also has a [python-wheel] tag. That said, I don't feel super strongly about it and I wouldn't be opposed to doing something else, like what you've described
Feb 16, 2023 at 1:49 comment added muru Why do we need a python-wheel tag? Shouldn't just software-installation+python (or python3) suffice?

Feb 15, 2023 at 11:24 comment added Rishon_JR Honestly I don't see a reason to object this.
Feb 15, 2023 at 6:57 comment added cocomac Sounds good. I’ll wait a couple days in case anyone objects and/or has a reason not to, but if nobody does within a few days, I’ll go ahead and do it
