I dunno, from my experience, the most abused tag was the one for no context
- it seemed to be used as an IDONTLIKEIT or IDONTUNDERSTANDIT or a "too
short" tag, regardless of whether the article gave sufficient context. As just one example, I once saw a two-sentence stub on a mayor of New York City being tagged for speedy deletion on the grounds that it gave insufficient context, even though it was pretty damn clear what the article was about. From my experience, idiots abusing this tag would probably be an equal, if not greater, problem.
Part of the problem is the template name: db-empty. I think this makes people think of 'too short'. The criterion also only applies to articles, not categories, templates, etc etc.
