I haven't looked too much at the tags in use, but noticed an inconsistency in the currency tags for this question -- 'usd' and 'british-pound'. I thought I'd create a meta question to discuss.

Did one of the other stack exchanges use both the abbreviation and the name as the tag like this:
usd-us-dollar, gbp-british-pound, etc.

+1. Those have the advantage of being keyword rich. There might be a length limitation on some obscure ones, but the major ones all probably fit. Commented Jan 4, 2011 at 20:26

1I just established a new tag 'cad-canadian-dollar' here: money.stackexchange.com/questions/5558/… ... we should change the other currency tags over time to match. Commented Jan 10, 2011 at 14:38

I've changed USD and GBP to the new style tag, and added a couple of more synonyms (noticed you had at least a couple there already.) Commented Jan 11, 2011 at 20:17

It looks like the tags have already been edited. What are your suggested changes?
Any user with 200+ reputation can edit tags. Since you do not yet have sufficient reputation, you can make your requests here (as you did) or comment on the individual posts.

Currencies have standard names (usd, gbp, etc.) so maybe standardize on them and alias other names ("us-dollar", "british-pound", "uk-pound") to them?
