If any action is taken, .bashrc should be made a synonym of bashrc, not of bash. It's true that we don't need a separate tag .bashrc. That tag is hardly used (surely some question has at some point i …

Merging Versioned and Versionless Desktop Environment Tags I think gnome3 (and gnome2, if we have it) could be made synonyms of gnome. Similarly, kde4 (and kde3, if we have it) could be made synonyms …
