I just noticed that we we have both (35 questions) and (6 questions) tags.

I can't see how the six questions that have ephemerides need it, and I'm guessing that ephemeris is all we need, but I could be missing something.

    $\begingroup$ Pretty sure we don't need both, but not sure which the community thinks should take precedence, so I'll wait to see what answers we get. $\endgroup$

I agree, I think we only need "ephemeris". I'd prefer the singular being the merged tag, as plurals going from "-is" to "-ides" are not the most familiar words outside of technical contexts (to the point where users with >20k reputation need to ask about how they are pronounced!).
