Probeaufgabe: Enhance tag rename page

[Thomas Niebler]

I would like to replace my not so often used tags (such as semantic_web) more easily. For this task, there already exists the http://www.bibsonomy.org/editTags page. Unfortunately, I cannot see my used tags and their frequencies. This would be a nice and not so difficult feature.

How about tag autocomplete than we have on /editBookmark and /editPublication

[Robert Jäschke]

I fully support this enhancement! My suggestions:

1. Integrating the auto completetion as suggested by @nosebrain is a good idea, since
   • this also shows the tag frequency,
   • the backend code is already implemented,
   • the user is acquainted with the interface
2. In addition, by hovering the mouse over a tag from the tag cloud in the sidebar, the user can see the frequency of the tag. In the old days [tm] it was possible to click on a tag in the sidebar and it was then entered into the form field which had the focus. This does no longer work and should thus be enabled again.
3. Having some way to see the distribution of long tail would be helpful (and should be possible to integrate), however, it really only helps, if the user can also see similar tags for each such tag. Thus, one option could be, to show a list of the bottom 100 tags (least used tags) and for each tag to also show the 5 most similar tags by Levenshtein distance. This computation could be done in the browser with JavaScript after getting the user's tags from BibSonomy.
