How to Use Labels

Confluence enables you to label, or tag, pages with keywords, which helps in categorizing information. (MediaWiki uses the term "category." Other wikis have similar functionality.) You can add labels to pages at any time by using the Add Labels or the Labels Edit link. Look at the list of labels before adding a new label to see if existing labels fit your needs. This wiki uses specific labels and combinations of labels to generate certain pages, so do not remove or change labels from pages.

Note: You can perform complex label searches in Confluence. Though these searches are not intuitive, you could type the following in the Search box:

label:( +global?solaris) AND label:( +global?security )

This search returns a list of all the pages tagged with both the "solaris" and "security" labels.

Confluence provides a way to view all labels on the wiki. Here are all the labels used by the OpenSolaris 2009.06 Information Resources wiki:

After clicking this link, you see a page that lists all of the labels used on this wiki. The text of the labels is shown in varying sizes. The larger the text for a specific label, the more frequently that label is used on the wiki." From this page, you can click a label to view all pages tagged with that label.
