Can you tap planeswalkers?

Planeswalkers don't have any inherent ability to become tapped. Assuming you mean tapping them with something like Dream's Grip, it doesn't cause any inherent effects from the Planeswalker itself - in particular, since they don't tap to use their abilities, it doesn't affect the loyalty abilities.
