I have deleted identification-request tag and added missing tags as mineralogy, petrology or sedimentology from questions that are related with **field or theorical geology** ([example][1]). Also questions about clouds and meteorology instrumentation to facilitate the deletion task.

Then if a "ban" is applied to every question that has the tag those questions will be saved (I still don't understand how is gonna this be solved).
 
For all questions related with fossils I started to do it, but I was told not to do it from other reviewers. There are still 3 questions of fossils taged id-request. I have sugested their edition to place them where the rest of fossils question are (fossil tag has 60 questions, some of them not related with identification).

I completed the review. 

The result is:

 1. **Questions retaged deleting id-request tag** (~60)
 2. **Questions taged with identification-request** (391):

  

 - Questions asking to identify his mineral or rock (388, [we are closing everyone][2], will be done in some days).
 - A few questions about fossils (3). ([Are fossils questions going to be deleted too?][3])

My sugest is to retag them (and delete the word rock from title) to leave the list clean of questions we don't want to delete, but as you wish:

https://earthscience.stackexchange.com/questions/5415/fossil-or-beef-limestone

https://earthscience.stackexchange.com/questions/12542/what-type-of-fossil-is-present-in-this-rock-from-northern-ohio

I am for accepting fossils questions, but if you wish not to, you can see the rest of questions asking to identify a fossil on fossils tag, that has only 60 question in total. It does not represent a traffic trouble and fossils can be very commonly identified from morphology are my reasons.

I hoppe it is correct with the thougths of the community, facilitating the deletion task (and the process of including the tag in a black list, if it is done).
