+1 for text
-1 for no humans

- Not all the images with the text only page are literally only text. This may be an incorrect use of the tag but if so that's a lot of incorrect usages.
- A page featuring ASCII art of a person is technically a text only page, although the tag doesn't seem to be currently used on entries like http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1464937 or http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1740126

Well, I think the wiki page is pretty clear on this one since it's pretty short written with a clear message. If it is used wrong, it's not a problem of the tag but of the user's comprehension of a tag since one should get an message from a moderator if used wrong.
-> Text only page is pretty literal and ASCII doesn't show any text so it doesn't even qualify for the text tag and so definitely not for the tect only tag.
Hmm, I've got another idea since this proposal isn't as clear as I wanted it to be:
How about we drop the text_only_page tag and create a tage like text_page where text is in the focus of the image like in post #2209368 (there is water and therefore a thing that cintradicts to this tag's wiki page) or post #2017522.
But I don't think this is necessary since if text_only_page is searched with no_humans there is the same amount of pages (39 pages with 20 posts per page).
The strongest argument I can think of is when it's a human "narrating" the text on these pages, or like post #2255074 where there are clearly human(oid)s interacting, even if it's offscreen. I feel that it's against the idea of the tag to use it in that circumstance.

Hmm, ok, I can live with this reason.
But I think then the wiki entry of text_only_page should get updated with a message like: "This tag shouldn't be used if the text is spoken by humans" or something like this.
And I'll alter the request and nuke the implication to no humans.
