Named Director Tags [duplicate]

Question

I noticed recently that we have a few tags which are specific to individuals such as...

alfred-hitchcock 11 Questions

steven-spielberg 6 questions

tim-burton 1 Question

...just to name a few. I'm sure there are others.

The tag wikis are good enough but it seems to me that we should only be using these tags for specific questions abou the director or specific overall questions about their work. This previous question from a few years back doesn't seem to have set any specific rules

For instance stanley-kubrick is attached to this question:

In Dr. Strangelove, what is the device Soviet Ambassador Sadesky uses near the end of the film?

The tag adds nothing to the question which asks nothing about the director at all.

So, should we :

• Update the tag wikis as to their usage

• Review from the questions to which they are attached (there aren't many) and remove as needed

  • perhaps as we find them to avoid clogging the front page?

Or pehaps we just remove them completely since we already have an overarching directors tag sitting there for use?

I'm torn but the first option seems most user-friendly.

Answer 1

AFAIK, the director or any individual person tag should be used for questions about that person (not about personal lives as comment by @Catija) or his/her working style, given that those questions are within the scope defined in help center.

For eg., Why did Nolan want to end the Batman series? and Why did Nolan choose “Non, je ne regrette rien” as a kick song in Inception?.

In conclusion, unless the question is about an individual person or his/her working style, the individual tag must not be used.
