is there a way to update tags on multiple work items?

It is not yet possible using the work item explorer. There's enhancement 87373 (https://jazz.net/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/87373) to track this (and it's already implemented for 3.0 :))
In the meantime, you can use a plan and/or my work view to add/remove tags on multiple work items. There's a "Tags" context menu that works on multiselection as well.

Hi.
I need to remove a bunch of rogue tags from a lot of work items.
Only very few of the work items are mine, so the "My Work View" is not an option.
The work items are spread over several (and even some archived) plans, so messing that up by re-planning the items it not really an option either.

Of course, I started out trying to run the 3.0M6 client against our 2.0.0.2 server, but that didn't work.

Is it possible to perform an sql query that deletes all tags from all work items in a certain project area, or do I have other options to 'get back to scratch'?

Thanks,

Unfortunately, this functionality is only available in 3.0. You must not
modify the database directly using SQL. The only option I can think of
is a utility (using the plain Java libs) that does the task for you.
