+I am trying to create a tag cloud using:  
+           
+     \[[!pagestats  pages="tags/*"]]
+
+Nothing shows up when I first used this directive. I found that I had to create a page for the tag for it to show up in pagestats.
+I would rather not find and create a page for every tag I have created or will create. Is there an easier way to create a list of tags?
+
+Thanks

+Should negation work with user(), with locked_pages in setup?  I
+experimented with setting locked_pages => 'user(someuser)' and was able to
+edit as a different user.  However, setting locked_pages =>
+'!user(someuser)' doesn't seem to allow edits for only 'someuser' - it
+locks out all users.

+Is there a way to refer to all subpages of the current page, if  the name of the 
+current page is not known (i.e. the pagespec is used in a template)? The ./ syntax
+does not seem suitable for this, as
+

+
+also lists the current page and all its siblings.
