Abstract

Exemplary embodiments involve a content management application executed by a processor modifying a taxonomy hierarchy of tags. A content repository includes at least one content item having a primary reference identifying a first tag of the taxonomy hierarchy. The first tag includes a first description. Modifying the taxonomy hierarchy invalidates the primary reference. The processor generates a secondary reference in the taxonomy hierarchy. The secondary reference is identified by the primary reference and identifies a second tag including the first description. The processor receives an input referencing the first tag by the primary reference. The processor directs the input to the second tag via the secondary reference.
