Stock Patterns
The extension ships with the ability to recognize three such writing/outlining patterns. Give them a try!
Question Informed by Evidence
-
Go into a Question page.
-
Create a block, and reference an evidence page.
Like this:
The system now formally recognizes that this piece of evidence informs the question (and equivalently, the question is informed by that evidence)!
Claim Supported by Evidence
Create a block anywhere, and reference a claim page. We'll call this the claim block.
Indent a block underneath the claim block. And reference the page [[SupportedBy]]. We'll call this the connecting block.
Indent a block underneath the connecting block. And reference an evidence page.
Like this:
The system now formally recognizes that this piece of evidence supports that claim (and equivalently, the claim is supported by that evidence)!
Claim Opposed by Evidence
Create a block anywhere and reference a claim page. We'll call this the claim block.
Indent a block underneath the claim block. And reference the page [[OpposedBy]]. We'll call this the connecting block.
Indent a block underneath the connecting block. And reference an evidence page.
Like this:
The system now formally recognizes that this piece of evidence opposes that claim (and equivalently, the claim is opposed by that evidence)!
