| Years Before 2019 | Any references that were produced before 2019 are tagged with their year of original publication, including: 2006 · 2016 · 2017 · 2018 |
| #ddoom_original | Links related to my own original work. The tag can be used for anything I produced myself, as opposed to references from third parties. This tag is intended for substantial accomplishments like new videos (#ddoom_videorelease), written works and terms invented (#ddoom_mynewterm). For routine housekeeping functions, like new hashtags, #ddoom_housekeeping is used instead. (Differentiated on 19 Apr 2019.) |
| #ddoom_videorelease | Tweets announcing the release of my own original video posted on the DD YouTube Account. |
| #ddoom_milestone | Items recording a transitional event in the evolution of my Demographic Doom project. Alternatively, tweets may be flagged with #ddoom_timeline for lesser events whose dates I want to record but that don't constitute "milestones". (#ddoom_milestone and #ddoom_timeline shouldn't be used in the same tweet.) |
| #ddoom_myblog | Indicates a link to an new entry in the Demographic Doom Blog. This is distinct from #ddoom_blog, which refers only to other people's blof posts. |
| #ddoom_mynewterm | Tweets announcing my invention of a new term. Also tagged with #ddoom_definition. |
| #ddoom_timeline | Routine changes to the project that don't constitute "Milestones". (#ddoom_timeline can be applied only if #ddoom_milestone and #ddoom_housekeeping aren't used.) Generating a #ddoom_timeline tweet is similar to adding an item to the old Revision Log. |
| #ddoom_housekeeping | The announcement of miscelaneous structural changes to the project that don't involve any substantial content and aren't covered by other hashtags in this section. |
| #ddoom_hashtag | The announcement of new Twitter hashtags. These tweets usually start: "#ddoom_xxxxx is my new hashtag for..." Hashtag announcements generally include only topics and housekeeping functions; they do not include countries, media sources, people and organizations. |
| #dd_htfu #ddoom_hashtagfirstuse | Indicates when a hashtag is first used. The hashtag in question appears in the tweet immediately before #ddoom_hashtagfirstuse. If a number appears, like "#ddoom_hashtagfirstuse 2", it means that the two preceding hashtags are being used for the first time. |
| #ddoom_repost | An existing tweet is re-posted, usually with some new hashtags that were forgotten in the original tweet. The original tweet is deleted if it is less than two days old; otherwise, it is retained. |
| #ddoom_videoplaylist | Highlights new and existing video playlists on the >DD YouTube Account. These are lists of videos, mostly from third parties, fully indexed on the Video Page. |
| #ddoom_countrypost | A tweet that provides cross-reference links for a country, including its YouTube playlist and Instagram hashtag. Also tagged with #ddoom_hashtag |
| #ddoom_manuscript | Announcements relating to the book manuscript I am currently working on, currently The Fertility Manifesto (started 18 April 2019). (Also tagged #ddoom_original.) Significant Manuscript changes are also recorded on the Timeline page. See separate tag #ddoom_footnote for support of factual claims. |
| #ddoom_footnote | Virtual footnote to the Fertility Manifesto manuscript. Intended to support some factual claim I make as I am writing. (NOT tagged with #ddoom_manuscript) |
NOTE: To be sure you are seeing all tweets from each hashtag, click on the "Latest" header at the top of the Twitter search page.
Starting on 7 April 2019, tweets are indexed via hashtags that begin #ddoom_. For example, to find all tweets on China, see #ddoom_china. This system is intended to replace the existing Structured References page, which was too difficult to maintain. (That page is preserved for older references, but no new articles will be added.) I can't prevent others from using these hashtags, but I hope people will employ them according to the same standards I use. (If possible, also add the hashtag #ddoom_x to indicate that this tweet was externally produced.)
Twitter posts are indexed by topic, country and media source according to the hashtags listed below. Click on the link for the relevant tweets. Unfortunately, the order these tweets are displayed is arbitrary, determined by Twitter.
This Twitter hashtag system is based on the system already implemented for Instagram. (Those hashtags are indexed on the Video page.) Twitter hashtags roughly correspond to those on Instagram, but there could be some subtle differences. For one thing, there are a lot my hashtags on Twitter. Instagram hashtags can also be retroactively changed for existing posts, while Twitter hashtags cannot.
The Twitter account is used chiefly for print references and other text-based events. Videos are rarely included here (except my own) because they are indexed separately in video playlists. Short video excerpts are posted on Instagram and are not announced or duplicated on Twitter.
The @DemographicDoom account is very active with potentially dozens of tweets a days (interspersed with periods of inactivity). Unless you are a hardcore demographics fan, you may not wish to follow this account directly. Instead you can simply access it as needed via the hashtags above.
History: This hashtag system was started on 7 April 2019 and further developed in the following weeks. (No significant hashtags are present before that date. For those references, see the Structured References page.) The hashtags are continuously expanding, but most old hashtags will continue to be supported. (If I change how a hashtag is used or spelled, I will note it in a tweet that includes both new and old hashtags.) Since old tweets can't be changed, older tweets may not take advantage of newer hashtags. Starting 19 April 2019, I try to post a new stand-alone tweet for each new hashtag created, tagged as #ddoom_hashtag.
