Could a "young player" tag be relevant?

Should this general PBTA tag be removed when there is already Dungeon World tag?

Do we need a separate tag for Pathfinder 2e Remastered?

This tag is not for just saying "I am a new GM": okay, but we did anyway. Now what?
I still* think this should be renamed and synonymed to learning-to-gm. That would make it clearly right on the right questions and obviously wrong on the wrong questions, making cleanup natural for ...

Is there an issue with tagging questions about portals?
There is something to be said about how you've framed the inquiry here. I'm sure the strike has something to do with the lack of engagement on your question, but the way you've framed it is doing you ...

Does [chameleon] blend in?
