Please expand further in regards to INLINE TAGGING in Tana Docs

Explain the problem as you see it

No one seems to grasp inline tags. I've raised the question on Reddit and Slack and there seems to be a whole lot of confusion in regards to inline tags.

Why is this a problem for you?

There is zero documentation in regard to the use of inline tags. The only documentation is that you can create them via the context menu, that's it. I've been struggling to grasp inline tagging for a long time and I can't seem to find anyone or any tutorial explaining inline tagging. In theory I know what @reference, inline #tag, and #supertag do and how they appear but can't differentiate in which context one provides a benefit over the other and vice versa. I'm aware that:

  • @references: appear in the Library page

  • inline #tags: do not appear at the end of a node in the Outline page & only in the Schema Page

  • #supertags: creates a #tag at the end of a node as well as in the Schema Page

Suggest a solution

Please provide more documentation on the characteristics of inline tags and how they differ to inline references and node supertags. Providing some examples would be of tremendous help.
