Does the "content-management" tag have any meaning, for Drupal?

Question

I notice there are questions tagged content-management, but I don't understand in which cases the tag should apply, considering that Drupal is a CMS, and the content management aspect of it is predominant (otherwise Drupal would not be a CMS).

Is there any better tag to use instead of content-management, or should the tag simply removed?

I am wondering about the tag because the questions using it.

• https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/25629/i-need-to-upload-several-hundreds-of-pdfs-at-once-and-allow-these-files-to-be-a
• Manage Display of Entity Reference Field: How to link to nodes instead of plain-text?
• Linking Custom Content Types Together
• Is there a way to limit how much storage users have to store their content?
• Are there existing modules to group nodes and give sequential access to them in Drupal 7
• Can I use views_bulk_operations with the D7 core toolbar module?

As you see, the newest questions are using the tag in a too generic way. If that is the way of using the tag, then Drupal is all about content management, and the tag is quite too bread to be useful. If the tag has a specific meaning, then there are questions using the tag that should not be using it; if that is the case, the tag should be removed from some of the questions.

Answer 1

I mostly agree with @Clive, but need a little more space to address @kiamlaluno's comment.

If we ignore how the tags currently being used, based on experience with clients, the concepts of content and content management are two very different things, and are often done by different user groups. Using the same tag would potentially results in it being used for two classes of questions.

To put it in Drupal terms, I would say that content is more about the daily tasks of making nodes, editing, etc, and potentially the UX/IA that surrounds this.

I would say that content management is more about issues sucks as workflow, revisioning, import, content staging, and similar tasks. And frankly, these are the tasks that are either clunky or just plain don't work well in Drupal.

If a distinction is made about how tags should be used, I think it could lead to better organization of questions on the site.

Answer 2

I see Drupal as a framework rather than a CMS these days, and as such I'd say content-management is simply one aspect of that framework. To my mind it would be on a par with a tag called user-management (which doesn't actually exist but in my opinion would be perfectly valid).

A question tagged content-management could conceivably be something such as "What is the best method for allowing different users to manage their own content within a Drupal site?".

I think the tag would be perfectly valid in an instance like that.

Just my two cents as always :)
