I found two tags without a description
Missing tag wikis are common - Tags are created when there is a question that needs them, not when we feel like we should make a tag.

In an answer, should I link to the same question found on Unix&Linux Stackexchange?

Just linking to it negates the use of the question as a Q&A article and thus is discouraged - even in this scenario. …

How are we going to deal with Qt 5.0 questions?

My question is different, but it was merged. and now i want to unmerge it..
I'd say don't unmerge. While the questions differ, they only do so in the version of ubuntu used, and the resulting difference in nautilus.

When do comments disappear?
A moderator may delete a comment for various reasons: It is obsolete, it is rude, off-topic, too chatty, even an insanely long comment discussion that may or may not be on-topic may be deleted with the … notion of "go to the chat for a lengthy discussion" (although, in that case, the contents of the comment will likely be preserved) - everything you can flag a comment for, a moderator can delete it for …

How can I find a list of tags that lack a definition?
There is this handy query on data.SE, which returns tags with missing wikis.
