  • @rene I was confused about this, too. The edit button should be disabled then. Commented Jan 28, 2014 at 21:20
  • @rene nope, protected is not locked, users can edit as usual including 1 rep users and anonymous visitors. They can't answer that's all. Commented Jan 28, 2014 at 21:24
  • Really weird, there's no trace for that tag in the question. Tried Data Explorer as well, showing only the original two tags. Real ghost! :) Commented Jan 28, 2014 at 21:31

I have no idea what caused the problem; most likely a caching error as the tag was added then removed in a grace edit, with the page cache missing that last update.

I resolved it by forcing a new revision; I added a dummy tag, then removed that tag again in a grace period edit. This flushed the cache and the tag is now gone.
