This is straightforward in most cases as groups generally stick to a single tag. However, the rules below should also be taken into account if that is not true.

If another group that already exists in the database has the same shortname, you can also check the "Has Duplicate?" checkbox for the entry. The site will then disambiguate the group from the other groups by also including the full name in contexts where only the shortname would be ordinarily used. Don't worry if you forget to do so, though; this duplicate shortname status is periodically updated for all groups automatically.
