Frequently Asked Questions about tag-taxonomy

FAQPage Schema
How do I normalize wiki tags to a canonical taxonomy in Obsidian?▼

Wiki tag normalization maps common aliases to canonical forms defined in a taxonomy file. The Skill audits your Obsidian vault pages, flags unknown tags, and enforces a 5-tag limit per page to ensure consistent tagging and reduce confusion.

What is the best way to audit and enforce a 5-tag limit per wiki page?▼

Enforcing a 5-tag limit requires checking each page against a canonical taxonomy. The Skill flags pages exceeding the limit and identifies unknown or missing tags, suggesting updates to the taxonomy file for new concepts.

Do I need a specific taxonomy file structure to enforce consistent tagging?▼

Yes, consistent tagging requires a taxonomy file at _meta/taxonomy.md within your Obsidian vault. The Skill reads this canonical taxonomy file to map aliases and enforce tag limits across all wiki pages.

How do I map common tag aliases to canonical forms in my vault?▼

Mapping aliases to canonical forms is done by applying rules from your taxonomy file to your pages. The Skill aligns common aliases to their canonical forms during the tag normalization process to enforce consistent tagging.

Why does tag normalization flag unknown tags during a wiki audit?▼

Tag normalization flags unknown tags because they are not present in the canonical taxonomy. Flagging these tags helps identify new concepts and prompts you to update the taxonomy file to maintain consistent tagging across the vault.
