The article appears to be a WP:NEO with very few web hits other than the activities related to Missouri Botanical Garden. John Vandenberg 00:23, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- The comment on Talk:Tagswarm by Chrisfreeland (talk · contribs) indicates that the purpose of this article is to "to publicize [this effort by the Missouri Botanical Gardens in order] to get more volunteers", not to be an encyclopaedia article on a concept that is an existing and documented part of the corpus of human knowledge. Of course, that was in 2005, and it is possible that the concept of tagswarming has become documented since then. Searching reveals that it hasn't, however. The only documentation to be found is things like this which is an article on a personal web log of one Chris Freeland, who states that xe is an employee of the Botanical Gardens, and this, which is an article hosted by a free wiki hosting service that is written by a user named "chrisfreeland". It appears that this is a concept that has not garnered traction in the world outside of its creator and proponent, and thus a violation of our Wikipedia:No original research policy. Delete.

- Delete or merge with Tag cloud, which is a more common term, although not exactly the same thing. - cohesion 02:36, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
