Why is it abuse? The recipe is a traditional dish from Spain. I've never used the tag so maybe I dont fully understand it. Is the tag only meant for posts written in the spanish language?

Yep, the dish as #Spain food... #spanish is a tag for spanish language post.

Shall I down vote your comment then? The #Spain tag is not listed under Steemit's list of recognized tags.

See for yourself: https://steemit.com/tags

Maybe you should flag (changing the name of the down vote doesn't change it's nature) Steemit for not providing relevant tags.

Saludos!

If the #spain tag does not appear in the list you provide, it does not mean that it does not exist. That link you mention will only list the most used tags by the community (the most popular ones). That said, the correct label to refer to a dish native to any country is the country itself (in this case #spain); #spanish only serves as a label in those publications where the referenced language is used partially or totally.

Thank you for contributing to the debate.

Thanks. I appreciate it. I appreciate the feedback along with the downvote as well. I feel like I learned something that I didnt realize before and the issue got resolved in the end. That probably wouldnt have happened with a downvote but no explanation, so thanks for that. I think we just proved that communication works lol

Of course it is! But, to tell the truth, it took me a long time to reach this level of understanding, mainly because I saw downvotes as a weapon of punishment and not as what it really is: a way of orientation if you know how to use it effectively. In this way, we will make a blockchain with less garbage and better content.
