mistagging

Incorrect category assignment

Mistagging is applying the wrong tag or label to something.

In social media, mistagging means mentioning the wrong account: I mistagged you in that photo—sorry!

In data management, mistagging corrupts classification systems.

The word appears wherever tagging systems exist: photo libraries, research databases, inventory tracking, online content.
