Creating a New Tag
Labels can be used for many How is information organized in Traction TeamPage, such as tracking priority and status, organizing articles in a taxonomy, and determining where to display articles in views like the Front Page and Space Dashboard.
What characters can I use in tag names?
tags can be made up of the following characters:
Letters and numbers from any UNICODE alphabet, including Japanese, Cyrillic, Greek, etc.
Spaces
Underscores "_"
Dashes "-"

Colons are used to designate hierarchical tag names in Traction.
