- synonymous tags which could be combined together
- series with very different tags (which should normally happen)
- typos in tags
- books without tags (or potentially too few/too many) tags
- etc...
I've found the easiest way to manage tags is to delete all tags from new books immediately after import and add my own tags later when cleaning up the metadata. To try to make sense of the mess the default tags bring with them is a waste of time and energy.
