SHORTHAND RULES
- Tags must be longer than four letters to have a shorthand version assigned to them
- The preferred length for all shorthand versions of tags is exactly three letters whenever possible, four when absolutely necessary, and never more
- All shorthand versions of tags use the first three or four letters of the tag
- Some longer tags do not have a shorthand version due to awkwardness of the first three letters and loss of meaning exceeding what I find acceptable (example: Timeline)
- In some cases, file extensions can be used as shorthand for some Tags, but they must be exactly three characters

Did you know that you can use the tag CHAPTER instead of SECTION, if you want? SYNONYMS make it fine to replace one with the other!
