Conjuration spirited away

Question

So per the discussion about conjuration and necromancy, conjuration has been mostly removed from questions.

It was removed from each of the following, and replaced with summoning:

• Does a dagger summoned by Minor Conjuration overcome resistances?

• Can I conjure a dagger or dart in my offhand and use bonus action to attack with it?

• Does a “Minor Conjuration” object contain details of the original even if the caster did not see those details?

• Can “Minor Conjuration” create a physical key?

• What exactly is the difference between conjure animals and woodland beings?

• When you lose control of Conjure Elemental, is it still hostile towards your enemies or just you?

• Do you have to be the ritual leader when creating an ally spirit?

• Could you replicate a spell book using minor conjuration?

• How fragile are Minor Conjurations?

• What happens if I Minor Conjuration an object I have seen - but didn't know it was magical? (also added magic-items)

• Can conjured creatures bring back something (objects or creatures)

• Limitations on the Conjurer's Minor Conjuration ability

• Do conjurations still appear if you miss?

• Do the Onyx Dog's temporary hit points disappear when the party takes a short rest?

It was also removed from the following, which already had summoning:

• Losing concentration on Conjure Elemental if you summon an Invisible Stalker?

There are two remaining questions in conjuration:

• Flaming Sphere AOE—Literally the only place in this question that the text “conjur” appears is in the conjuration tag. While flaming sphere is a Conjuration spell, its status as a conjuration has nothing to do with the question. I suggest just removing it altogether.

  On the other hand, the 4e question about conjurations appearing if you miss, which is about Bigby’s icy grasp, may provide precedent for treating non-creature/non-object conjurations as summoning. At all, the flaming sphere persists and you can move it around, which does overlap some with summoning a creature.

• My Wizard is conjuring a piece of the sun. How will this affect my setting?—I would support calling this summoning despite it only being a piece of the sun, but it’s different enough that I wanted to highlight it before I touched it.

These two remaining questions have been dealt with per doppelgreener’s answer, and conjuration is gone!

Answer 1

Flaming Sphere AOE — I don't think this needs the conjuration or summoning tags.

• The question isn't materially about summoning, it's asking about a fireball that happens to get summoned. If I asked about how to make a weapon attack with my axe, that I happened to summon from over there a minute ago, the question still wouldn't be a summoning question, it would be a weapon attack question.
• From what I understand of the discussion in About conjuration and necromancy, then and New enchantment tag, not sure about this, tagging by what school a spell happens to belong in isn't useful.

We tag necromancy questions that are about the activity of raising undead & doing similar hijinks: we don't tag a healing spell with [necromancy] just because it's in the necromancy school. We should tag summoning questions if and when the question is materially about summoning a thing.

My Wizard is conjuring a piece of the sun. How will this affect my setting? — should have the summoning tag. He's summoning a piece of the sun. He scried its location (and got his eyes fixed afterwards, phew), and wants to make it wink out of existence over there and wink into existence over here. That's summoning, and it's materially about the activity of doing that. (The answers dive into "I don't think that counts for the summoning spell you're using" territory.) It's also materially about other things, like what kind of total havoc and/or burnination this is going to unleash.

Does that sound reasonable?
