I have to agree with both sides of the debate on this, I do think that Tara is an interesting character, i loved her in the show and i have read alot of Fanfic based on the W/T ship. But what i have noticed of late is that the stories are either very squishyly romantic (which are lovely in there part, but in my opinion make for a bland story) Change her character somewhat (Making her evil or getting her possessed seems to be a favorite) or add another character to the ship (W/T/B, W/T/X, and i once skipped through a W/T/Giles...i may be scarred for life)
So as loved by many as she is, Tara is Willow's girl, she does not make a good stand alone character. Faith on the other hand is a force of nature, She can and does stand alone, where Tara is light she is dark and can bring more angst and substance to a story (meat for the beast!)
 
This is just my opinion =o)
