What to do with the [format] tag?

Question

The format tag has no tag wiki.

The (currently) 7 questions seem to use it with different meanings (formatting of text, file formats, etc.).

What to do with the tag? Get rid of it? Define it?

Answer 1

“Format” is a clear case of ambiguous meaning. We need to retag the questions to either remove format or replace it by a non-ambiguous tag.

• Songbook text processing: Repeat chord lines for recurrent parts automatically? — I think music and word-processor are enough (this isn't plain-text since it's about how the text is presented).
• PHP verify .doc/.docx document respects template — format is pointless. office needs disambiguation.
• Editing ofm format — That's about the Omniform format, so tag it omniform.
• Recover data from a diskpart > clean command — That's about data recovery. We already have hdd-recovery and recovery for that. Those need cleanup as well; I've retagged a couple of recovery questions which weren't about recovery, and the rest were all about recovering deleted files or damaged filesystems (which overlaps a lot), so I merged them both into data-recovery which is the tag name used on other Stack Exchange sites (SF, SU, U&L, Sec.SE, Apple, Android, …).
• Format code for entire team — That's about code-beautification which is already present.
• https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/16830/should-i-really-use-exfat-on-sdxc — That's about filesystems. The question is closed, unanswered, abandoned, so I deleted it.
• Non-GPL non-proprietary non-viral-licensed popular video codec? — That's about video file formats. I'm changing format to file-format, though I this should really be video-file or something like it.

The tag is no more.
