Distinguishing between elements that have the same name

The primary means for disambiguation between same-name concepts is namespaces.

  • Read Hierarchical tag system
    • Ignore hierarchy, read namespaces.
  • Your examples could become:
    • vegetable/celery and technology/celery
      • or veggie/celery and engine/celery
    • model/Scion TC 2005 and asset/Scion TC 2005
      • or topic/Scion TC 2005 and object/Scion TC 2005
    • company/ABC Widgets and client/ABC Widgets
  • In other words:
    • the right part is the common name
    • the left part is the family name
      • Prefer family names that group concepts conveniently.
