  For some reason, one specific tag I use on my blog appears to have been disabled. Whenever anybody clicks on it, the message “Sorry, we didn’t find any posts here with that tag.You may want to try one of the sites below” appears. I’ve tried a couple of variations on the tag, and those give me the same result.

  Given that it’s only for this one specific tag, have WordPress disabled it, and if so, why, and why was I not contacted?

  You best bet is to contact staff directly for a accurate answer for your question…

  And please let us know what they’ll tell you.

  One thing you should note, however: as far as search engines and the WP global tag pages are concerned, tags and categories are exactly the same thing; so there’s no point in using the same word or phrase as both a tag and a category, plus you may run into various technical problems if you do.
