Where are these tags from exactly?


Presumably, it's any text enclosed in [brackets] in a news item or comment. (hence all the numeric tags from code)


Specifically, anything that matches the case-insensitive regex \[[0-9A-Z_\.\-]+\] and there's already a surprising number which provide useful searches.

Tags: [search] [tagging] [regex] [meta]
