Threshing

== Description ==

Every site over three years old has “javascript”, “JavaScript” and “js” as separate tags, and merging them by hand means reassigning four hundred posts. Threshing merges terms, keeps every assignment, and leaves a redirect from the old term archive so inbound links survive.

Splitting is the harder direction and nobody supports it: take an overloaded term, filter its posts by a second criterion, and move a subset to a new term. Threshing previews the split before committing it.

A duplicate finder catches case variants, plural forms and near-matches, ranked by how many posts each holds so you can see which one to keep.
