People sometimes register OAuth apps with long or disruptive names and descriptions without realizing that those strings will show up in various shared interfaces. A vandal could do this on purpose.
Once the app makes an edit, the edit will be tagged with the app name, and the app name and description will show up on Special:Tags and the advanced recent changes filter interface. Since it's a software-defined tag, admins can't remove it. The tag name and description can be change via the usual MediaWiki namespace override, but for an app that edits many wikis, it seems kind of annoying to have to do that, and tags apps used for testing only or for vandalism will still clutter up tag lists.
