I was wondering what the convention for naming various components that
could be used in transclusions.

1:You can have a script that does something.  For instance it could be
used search for tagged tiddlers and return a list of those tiddlers.
It could be named GetTaggedTiddlers

2:In another tiddler possibly named ListMyTaggedTiddlers could be
invoked by <<tiddler GetTaggedTiddlers with: mytiddlers>>

3:Say you then had another script that used that list of tiddlers to
create a tiddler say, named MyBracketedList creating a hard coded list
of links for use with .readBracketedList()

The above is just off the top of my head it could get more complicated
and of course the scripts could all be in one tiddler under section
headings and some functions combined but I thought they should all
have names if standing alone.

Transclusion can be both a verb and a noun.  So should we have names
like transclusion-script, transcluded, transcluder and even
transcludee (or even transcludette or El transcluder or La transcludee
for languages that use gender for such things:-)

All kidding aside it does become a problem when trying to write
instructions and explanations.

Eric combines author information (info), usage, variables and as
sections tiddler to display all of this information and tags it
transclusion.

However they could all be separate needing names and/or consolidated
to various degrees to make many nameless hybrids

Should we develop some convention before a defacto comes into being?
For note, template, macro, extension, plugin, tweak etc. While some of
us know the loosely agreed conventions many are used interchangeably
or completely wrong.
