Possibility to add a popup to when you try to create a question with a particular tag?

Question

We have some tags that really, are a foundation for bad, closed questions. (looking at you [game-identification]...)

I wonder, would there be a way to popup a notice when you create a question with a 'dangerous' tag? Something that would relay the current tag description, that describes what is a pass or not in that tag?

USE WITH CAUTION: Only ask if you have a screenshot, video, or audio clip from the game you want to identify. This tag is only for identifying games in movies, pictures, videos, advertisements or otherwise where an unknown game appears - not from a description of what you can recall from memory, or from a picture you drew yourself.

That might help curb down the bad questions issue I guess... but I could also believe that most new users that throw a question in that category will just click next without reading it.

PS: Spitballing here: Could a solution to that problem be to have 'protected tags' where you need a minimum reputation to ask in?

Yes, this functionality exists in the form of tag warnings. That link gives an example of how they look like:

and the answer indicates the process for requesting such a warning:

If you feel that your community can benefit from having some warnings, please start a discussion on your meta site. When the community comes to a consensus on the mechanics of a warning and a text to show, please add the status-review tag and we will pass the request to our developers to set the regex on the site for you.

It seems you've more or less already started step 1...
