A useful thing to know about AO3 tags is that they're wrangled by humans. A human being will read your tag, understand what it means*, and then connect that tag in the backend system to other tags that mean the same thing (if there are any)
that's why, for example, the tags
not beta read
no beta
no beta we die like men
no beta we die like mne
no beta we die like [insert character who dies in canon]
unbetad
unbeta'd
unbeta-d
un-beta'd
and a million more versions are all searchable and filterable if you just tag one of them. A Tag Wrangler (the job title of a human volunteer who manages AO3 tags) has made sure that AO3 understands that those are all synonyms, so AO3 treats them that way.
When you're tagging your fic, or searching for a fic, or filtering a tag to find or remove works from the list you do not have to use every possible version of a tag. You just need to pick one - unless using more is a stylistic choice you're making, in which case have at it.
*or research what it means - which is why wranglers really appreciate it if you put (OC) behind the name of your original characters so that they don't have to scour every source they can find to see if it's a named background character in canon.

Hello fellow Aziracrowphiles what does your GO obsession have you working on today? I'm a little over halfway through getting all the dialogue from the show. I've been on season 2 episode 3 for about a week, getting every quote from a show like this that has a whole lot of talking is a lot of work ๐๐. ๏ฟผ

Oh my god, John. The flipper of a seal? Seriously John? Omigod. ๐
He does know that Mycroft will find out about that someday. He literally just said that he hears of Sherlock everywhere since John became his chronicler.
