A computing device, computer system and associated method are provided to mediate a conversation in a manner that facilitates the inclusion of semantic tags within the conversation. In the context of a method, user input may be received relating to maintenance of a system. The method also determines, with processing circuitry, a candidate tag based upon semantic context of the user input. Additionally, the method provides an indication of the candidate tag to the user and receives a response from the user regarding validity of the candidate tag with respect to the semantic context of the user input. The method may also store the maintenance report including the user input and an associated tag. A corresponding mediation computing device and an associated computer system are also provided.
