(a) There are a number of posts that would be tagged by it. Two posts are entirely about fungal diseases, including CEARCH’s 4.5k word cause prioritization research report on the matter.
(b) 5 taggable articles would meet the threshold of content sufficiency, based on existing standards (e.g. Evidence Action has 5 posts, Giving Multiplier has 4, Fund for Alignment Research (FAR) has 2).
(c) In terms of broader significance of the topic/its notability, it’s a topic listed in Nuno’s big list of cause prioritization research, and the evidence suggests that it is potentially a cost-effective cause area—it would be valuable, from this perspective, to have a tag that allows people interested in funding/working on this issue to learn more about it as they browse the forum.
Would suggest creating a “Fungal Diseases” tag.
