Some people try to sneak in features to the main feature list (hence
violating the community rules that only widely accepted and in-use
features should be added), but mostly this will not succeed,
especially when they are disputed features, because someone will
remove them. I don't see a point in removing undisputed features from
the list though, just because they don't meet some formal criteria.


But why not? Ok i don't like it to have rules just to have rules, too. But if we try to moderate the list (pros were said allready) there have to be some rules?

We have to keep in mind, that this doesn't mean, that the tags aren't in the wiki anymore neither, that nobody has to tag stuff that way.

Additionally according to my experiences, most of the confusion is not
arising by new features, but by redefinition or amendment of already
existing ones.

I agree but how can we avoid it without doing some moderation and keep the list clean?

This results in the funny situation that I have to do a proposal to modify/extend a non proposed feature that is in conflict on the list ;)
