A tag related to this tag by an associative link. Symmetric. Optional.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Tag -> gmeow:Tag

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:relatedTag from gmeow:Tag to gmeow:Tag when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

# Worked example: tagging is flat-first, reified on demand ( P4). A bare
# gmeow:hasTag covers "this is tagged X". Tags themselves form a SKOS-style poly-
# hierarchy (gmeow:broaderTag / gmeow:narrowerTag / gmeow:relatedTag) inside a
# gmeow:TagScheme. When the PROVENANCE of a tagging matters — who applied it, in
# which scheme — it is promoted to a reified gmeow:Tagging relator binding tagger
# × tagged × tag × scheme, so a contested or machine-applied tag is auditable.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to link two tags by a non-hierarchical association — they travel together or co-occur — when neither is broader or narrower than the other (the counterpart of skos:related).

Avoid when

• Avoid using it for hierarchy (use gmeow:broaderTag / gmeow:narrowerTag) and avoid asserting both directions — the property is symmetric, so one assertion suffices.

How to use

• Assert gmeow:relatedTag once between the two tags; symmetry makes the reverse link hold automatically, keeping the associative web flat and optional.

Examples

• ex:tagOcean gmeow:relatedTag ex:tagBeach.
