deprecate wristlet

All the posts in the wristlet tag are either just bracelets or bangles.

It's reduntant, and a rare word with several definitions. Here's the wiktionary definitions of a wristlet:

  • An elastic band worn to keep a glove from slipping off the wrist.
  • A decorative band or bracelet that encircles the wearer's wrist; especially, a closely knitted one to keep it warm; a muffetee. Synonym: wristband
  • A small handbag with a short strap for attaching it to the wearer's wrist.
  • A handcuff.

Is there something I might be missing?
