[theme-reviewers] Tags and description.

Thu Aug 22 16:29:24 UTC 2013

I could not find a list of the tag anywhere so I used the list from the
Theme Check plugin. I think it should be complete.

I used http://wordpress.org/themes/tag-filter/ to count the number of
themes that use the tags. In the case of the colors I selected all of them
and selected the option "Match ANY of the checkboxes". There were 16 themes
that had every color tag, which would be impossible.

white, yellow 1667
