Yes, it can be redundant. Ignore it if you like.

and why both tag and tag_link have an event.id <http://event.id> field? is this redundant?

    It is a "many-to-many" but it can link to multiple tables.
    event is the event that a user can attend
    table_link is the ID that is used in a particular table.
    tag is the tag.id <http://tag.id> that this row is linking to.
    intent is as described before.
    tag_type is the table that the system will link to.
    Notice there is a booth, auth_user, and happening table.  All of
    those support tags and instead of needing to create a table for
    each one, I combined them. Aslo comes in handy in other ways too.
    Like if I want to create tag relations on other parts of my
    database.  I could even create tag relations on tags or other tag
    relations.  Very powerful.

    I am not sure if I understand your model. Can you explain
    "tag_link" ?

        I have the event management tool I have been working on for 2
        years now and I have made some changes to the code that
        require my most complicated query to be rebuilt.
        After thinking about it for several hours I figure I should
        throw it at you guys to see what you can come up with.
        The winner of this query will get 75€ with paypal or other
        means after I have it implemented it in the code.
        I have the following model:
        model_diagram.png
        event_attender.py
        tag.py
        tag_link.py
        Description:
        I am building a list of connections based on relevance by tag.
        Tags have two states, looking for and attribute.
        Users attach themselves to these tags with the two attributes.
        "I am looking for someone with this tag."
        and/or
        "This tag is something about me that I want to offer."

        Now when they do this a list of users will show on the screen.
        ID      Nickname        Tags your looking for that they have    Your
        Relevance
                Tags they are looking for that you have         Their Relevance
        Total Relevance         Image   city
        101     encompass       Tag1, Tag2, Tag4        3       Tag4, Tag5, Tag 
6       3       10
                http://....     Oulu
        102     encompass       Tag1, Tag2, Tag4        3       Tag4, Tag 6     
3       8
                http://....     Oulu
        150     encompass       Tag1, Tag2, Tag4        3       Tag 6   3       
7
                http://....     Helsinki


        This is build with the following:
        UserA is the user logged in using the system
        If another user has a tag that UserA is looking for, then
        relevance is +2 to UserA
        If another user is looking for something UserA has, then
        relevance is +1 to UserA
        If another user lives in the same city as UserA and has
        something they are looking for or something to offer then
        relevance is +1
Does this make sense? I just need to query that will happen. I can handle the view just fine. Feel free to comment or ask
        questions.
        If you can think of a good way to connect people better with
        the data in the model diagram attached do tell.  I will give
        you another 25€ for that implementation as well. :)
