Taxonomy Overview

Taxonomy Overview helps Drupal teams audit taxonomy quality, identify usage patterns, clean unused terms safely, and merge near-duplicate terms with confidence.

Recent updates add a governance-first action plan workflow with approvals, controlled execution, retries, cancellation, CSV exports, and role-based permissions.

Operational Notes

• Run drush updb after module updates that add schema fields.
• Run drush cr after route, menu, or command changes.
• For large datasets, run cleanup and merges with --dry-run first.
• Use approval and execution permissions to separate duties by role.
• Use role permissions carefully for taxonomy administration features.
