BBCode Tags Tagged Links Articles Tagged-articles
An upgrade to the [tagged] BBCode is in order, specifically an optional additional data entry for multiple tags! If I want to list all articles relating to one character, the [tagged] code works fine, but what if I want only the articles that I've tagged with character A and character B? As of now, the only way would be to manually link it, or make a new tag on every relevant article that I think to find that contains A and B and make a new AB tag. Cutting out the middle-man, and the middle-men for a party of 3 or 4, would be a great benefit!

As mentioned in the comments (shout out to PhntmDrgn), the optional data entires in mind would be boolean operators, probably the most simple ones like AND, OR, and NOT, with symbols to represent them like &, +, and ~ (respectively). This would be used to include and exclude particular tags by the symbols (or words, or both, however it needs to function), into something like this:       The above would generate a list of articles with Character A and Character B, but not any with Character C or Character D. There's tons of flexibility with just those three operators!
Forgot the noparse above.   [tagged:#characterA&characterB~#characterC~#characterD|list|A B no C D]

The Team's Response

Quite low support for a very complicated request that can be addressed by creating subsets. I am not saying it's a bad idea, it will need more support though to dive into something like this.
