You currently can’t transfer “ownership” of an optional tag in the same way you transfer deck ownership, but there are a couple of practical options depending on what you’re trying to achieve:

  1. If you want confusynq to maintain/update the tag content going forward:

    • They can simply start using the same tag name (UVA_SOM) on cards in the shared deck.
    • Optional tags aren’t “locked” to a single creator; anyone can add/remove them on their own cards.
    • If this tag is part of an official / managed AnkiHub deck and you want them to be the primary maintainer, the best path is to:
      • Ask confusynq to reply in your thread confirming they’re willing to take over.
      • Then flag the topic for moderator attention or open a new post in :person_raising_hand: Support tagging the AnkiHub team, explaining you’d like them listed as the main contact/maintainer for that optional tag.

  2. If you just want to stop “owning”/using the tag yourself:

    • You can bulk-remove the UVA_SOM tag from your local collection in Anki (Browse → search tag:UVA_SOM → select all → remove tag).
    • This won’t affect other users’ tags or confusynq’s usage; it only changes your local collection.

Because there’s no direct UI to reassign a tag to another user, the only formal “transfer” that can happen is via the AnkiHub staff updating who is considered the maintainer/contact for that tag in an official deck.

If your UVA_SOM tag is tied to a specific AnkiHub deck, reply with the deck name (or a link to it) and I can suggest a more precise next step (e.g., exactly how to flag it for staff so they can help).
