There are currently two tags with the same meaning, with most questions belonging to the former: and . One of the few questions in the latter category is tagged with both.

Can these be merged into and a synonym added from ?

    $\begingroup$ Makes sense to me. I suspect that 'recognition' was introduced by a non-native English speaker (some other languages use the same word for both purposes). $\endgroup$

Since no one has answered, I'll make my comment into an answer :-)

Yes, I think they should be merged as proposed. Identification is the appropriate word in English therefore it should be the main tag. Recognition is fine as a synonym; it may be the word that some non-native English speakers think of first.
