Two days ago we were advised of "Improvements to the tag system". So much for it making things better!!!!!!
My poetry blog has suffered on two fronts - firstly my tag "poem" was deleted from over 260 posts. BCUK doesn't know how this happened 
And now, according to the following message from BCUK, my Teddy Polar Bear (and other) poems have lost their title tags because they exceeded the five word limit.
The two actions have completely ruined my tagging system.
Hello la_spice,
in order to use your tags to improve the searchability of your blog posts, it has been necessary to make a few changes to the tag system.
The changes are as follows:
- tags will continue to be separated by a comma
- a tag must consist of between two and fifty characters
- a single tag can consist of up to five words
- almost all characters can be used as tags, except <, > and any other HTML code symbols
Unfortunately, these changes have caused some of your tags to be deleted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following are your tags were deleted:
Post Tag: firmness-like-it-used-to-be | at-the-end-of-the-day | don’t-let-my-mother-on-the-stage-mr-sullivan | teddy-polar-bear-goes-to-school | teddy-polar-bear-goes-on-holiday | through-the-eyes-of-a-child | teddy-polar-bear-goes-to-the-beach | teddy-polar-bear-has-a-friend | i-do-but-thats-another-story | medicine-man-gives-heap-big-medicine! | teddy-polar-bear-–-gone-but-not-forgotten | i’m-a-celebrity-–-get-me-out-of-here | my-lover-has-a-red-red-nose
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tags were deleted because of the following errors:
- Das Tag enthält zu viele Wörter. Ein Tag darf nur aus maximal 5 Wörtern bestehen. Bitte trenne Deine Tags mit Kommas und nicht mit Leerzeichen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your understanding. We hope you enjoy the new improved tag system.

So "no" blog team I am not enjoying the "new improved tag system" one bit. I would have at least preferred some notice so that I could try and find a way around this rather than have a fait accompli.
