Relations and Patterns

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)!
