Mayur asked on chat:

Create a separate blog module – This would involve building a dedicated module with custom models, routes, and specific functionality for managing blog posts.
Enable rich text editing on the current page implementation – This approach would involve adding a rich text editor to the existing page structure, allowing blog content to be managed within the current system without creating a new module.

New changes:

1. Remove tags and tag_description.
2. Create an association between BlogArticle and Taxon (we're allowing multiple taxons for a single article).
3. Create new breadcrumb taxon similar to product breadcrumb taxon.
4. Rename the table name to s3_blog
