Execution plan for implementing local-autonomy. See, If the goal of [secession] is to gain [independence], is it necessary to have both tags?
To allow time for objections to be made, I will make no changes until September 6, 2021.
After the changes, local-autonomy will have 6 questions.
Other questions, currently tagged independence, will either be dropped (7) or changed to secession (57). Some questions tagged secession will either be re-tagged as local-autonomy or have the tag added.
In the course of my review, I found
some questions have tags that are not related to the question, only mere reference in the question, those are marked "incidental reference" and should be removed;
several questions that could use other tags, those are noted, below;
(Unrelated to the implementation, a tag for Somaliland will be added with 3 questions getting the tag.)
