We can tag "desciptively" for CONTENT (e.g. "recipe by mother", "gollums haunt");for ORGANISATION (e.g. "chapter X", "sub-sect 9");and for SYSTEM (e.g. $:/AThingThat DoesStuff)

Can you elaborate on 3,5, & 6? I feel like I understand what you mean but I'm still have a difficult wrapping my head around it and what are the purpose and what would the outcome be for?
Then I started to try and understand what I had meant by the highly broad and abstract terms of "Groups" and "Categories" - which I believe now I just used to make the list as an idea of having many different kinds of prefixes on tags. Anyway, I tried to define them clearly for myself - looked at the structure of my main TW, my Toc, the tags I was using, and also of the folders hierarchy on my hard drive where I keep all my reference files.
I started to write down the answer, and within 10 minutes I was going round in circles. Thus reading bimlas' message made me smile. Perhaps this is not the right way to look at it.
So RANDOMLY - without putting much thought into what symbol to prefix the tags ...
Keywords? How about starting those with : #my-keyword
Category? How about : @my-category
Topic? How about: !topic
Keeping track of excised data?: ^Parent-Tiddler-Name
Groups? perhaps: %my-group
Styling tags? How about: *my-style
I just started thinking about this recently, so my insights are still in infancy.
I like the way this discussion is shaping up. May be a plugin could be written to ignore a set of characters like "@", "#" etc appearing in the begining of tag pill, so that user can use them safely to denote different branches of their organization system.sincerelyRiz
Ciao RizSome time ago you made for me a neat system (later refined by Mark S.) which auto-adds tags based on save on IN-LINE words.
The specific use-case was I post to #Twitter. Any in-line #hastagged word would get auto added as a tag to a Tiddler on save. Very neat. For those I never need to manually add tags.And I think that is part of the issue here in this thread. Efficiency of use.TW is unusual that taggery is (1) about many dimensions of usage; (2) very flexible in practical usage.Best wishesJosiah
I do not have a tiddler named: general-semantics. Instead it is named General Semantics. This is tagged with definition & general-semantics
Would you say this is wrong? Should its title be exactly the same as the tag - in all lower-case? Should there be two separate tiddlers, one lower-case, like the tag, one initial-caps like I have now?

Have a look in sidebar tools tag manager and set tag colours as you wish.

Unless you use coloured tags, you have to read the tag name, so I think colour can be used effectivly on tags as it can be in many other cases. In my key wiki I use the class field to change the titles text and background to indicate tiddler type. You can use trafic light colours or even shades of one colour as a group.
I use deep reds and purples for references and have my own informal colour language I apply. It makes the interface a lot richer

It is interesting how decisions on tags could be about colour encodement.

(to color your tag you must create a tiddler with the same name, and give it a field named color, however these tiddlers are considered normal tiddlers in the searchresults, that is probably why the color scheme was not continued.)

Of course it is easy, tobiases test filter is designed to only list the titles of the tiddlers matching the filter.
If you build your own list without using the "variable" you can reference fields inside the list widget as current tiddler. Eg {{!!caption}}
Or is there something more to your question?
