Other sites I frequent have a tag related to history (not your command history):

- [Unix & Linux: history][1]
- [Vi and Vim: history-of][2]
- [Science Fiction and Fantasy: history-of][3]
- [English Language & Usage: history][4]
- [Photography: history][5]
- [TeX and LaTeX: tex-history][6]
- [Information Security: history][7] is an example of ill-defined scope.

For some time now, I have felt we could use a similar tag. Questions like the following:

- http://askubuntu.com/questions/711474/why-did-the-ubuntu-gnome-logo-change-in-15-10
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/42724/whats-the-meaning-of-the-ubuntu-logo-where-does-it-come-from
- http://askubuntu.com/q/281092/158442
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/131139/why-did-ubuntu-stop-free-shipping-of-its-cds
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/694277/whats-the-reason-for-ubuntu-officially-supporting-versions-such-as-kubuntu-lub
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/326428/what-happened-to-ubuntu-certified-professional (closed as a dupe of http://askubuntu.com/questions/87445/what-is-the-current-state-of-the-ubuntu-professional-certification)
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/20251/what-happened-to-android-execution-environment (closed as a dupe of http://askubuntu.com/questions/17316/plans-to-make-android-apps-run-on-ubuntu-abandoned)
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/250991/what-happened-to-the-leadership-code-of-conduct
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/502280/what-happened-to-ubuntus-hall-of-fame-page
- http://askubuntu.com/questions/56547/what-happened-to-gobuntu

These questions ask why some things happened the way they did, which is what history is. Thoughts?
