While browsing through the particles tag, I noticed there were a lot of comparisons, and that some of the questions were tagged word-choice, so I thought I might propose to add a "particle-choice" tag, and to remove the word-choice tag for differences between particles (but only if there isn't also an aspect of the question which is about the differences between words, and if the question isn't about the differences between words and particles. In such cases both "word-choice" and "particle-choice" would be used.)
These are the following questions which would probably be affected, which is a fairly large number.
As usual, vote up for agree and down for disagree.
- に vs で: Particles: に vs. で, に vs で again: 前に vs 後で, に and で revisited, What's the difference between に and で when speaking of time of an action?, Why is 一緒に correct and 一緒で incorrect?, Combining に/で particles with 等など(or other “etc.” stand-ins)
