There were six questions tagged "definition". In most cases, it was either being used as a synonym of "terminology" or its only semantic content was "I'm asking about the definition of something or other", which doesn't make sense as a tag. (It's a type of question, rather than a subject.)

I've already removed the tag from all the questions it was used on. Can it please be burninated, or maybe made into a synonym of "terminology"?

Now that there are no questions with the tag, it will disappear from the list of tags overnight.

Moderators can make it a synonym of but I don't see a compelling reason to do so.

Stack Exchange staff can blacklist it, but they'll want more evidence of misuse than 6 occurrences (it was introduced in 87051 as far as I can tell).
