Might be a discourse limitation, but ability to create new data tags when the one you want isn't there would help the data tagging be more useful. Prob needs dkmeone tidyingbup and merging once in a while etc. But surely would be better, more accurate way to build the userbility of the knowledge base up.

Hi Olly!

As per [Trust Level Permissions Reference - Documentation / Using Discourse - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/t/trust-level-permissions-reference/224824), "create tags" is a permission that's assigned on Trust Level 3 (see [Understanding Discourse Trust Levels](https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/)).

Personally, I don't use tags much for filtering /navigation, and other than some high-level tagging, I suspect they are very variably applied.

Your mileage may vary!!

What tags did you want applied?
