Whenever I see the tag best-practices, I wonder what it is good for.

No one is ever asking for a mediocre or even worst practice. We expect all answers to show the best way to solve an issue.

It also doesn't tell anyone about the type of problems that are grouped under this tag.

All questions titled "Best practices to do X" can simply be written as: "How to do X?". Same meaning, same answers, doesn't need a tag.

So my suggestion is that we drop this tag and merge it into our trash bin customization.

Any objections?

Update 2018.12.17

Today I merged the tag into customization. RIP.
