Tag variances

Some tags are not the same as their corresponding namespaces or icons. Others are just a bit odd and potentially hard to remember. They are listed here.

The main differences are that tags are often singular where namespaces and icons are plural. Why? It just kinda seemed appropriate at the time.

Another thing to watch out for is that some of these use dashes where others use underscores. Again, one of those choices just seemed more appropriate for the given context for possibly misguided reasons.

The works:manors tag can be confusing as there is also a works:manor one. The former refers to HârnMaster works such as HârnManor and similar fanon, while the latter marks HârnWorld settlement articles.

Another tricky one is the start tag, which is used to mark sub-namespaces start pages and so exclude them from topic lists. It does not belong to the works: tag namespace.

One area of divergence is with magazines. The page names are given to allow for sequential alphabetization, and so the issue number is padded to two digits with a leading zero, if need be. Tags have no such padding.

Thus, the issue located at works:thonahexus:thona_01 gets the works:thonahexus_1 tag, along with the pages for its constituent articles.
