Multiple Identify tags

Question

We currently have two tags, idenitfy and identify-this-movie. IMHO I think we should make identify-this-movie a synonym of identify.

Go for it in my opinion.

On SF&F, we have [story-identification] regardless of media type (which I is my fault, but the community is against renaming). I would recommend using [identify-this-thing] instead: identify-this-movie or identify-this-series. This allows users who specialize in one media type to only follow one of the tags, and users who like all media types can subscribe to identify-*. The format is also consistent with identify-this-game on Gaming (on the other hand, Literature uses story-identification).

OK, so, TL is saying that instead we should have identify-this-movie and identify-this-tv-show instead of identify....

I honestly don't mind this, for those identify questions it at least limits the scope of what the item could be to a certain media but would require the asker to actually know at least that much. For the time being, I tagged the Nickelodeon question with the tv tag and pruged the identify tag.
