-Out of the box SilverBullet is fairly minimal in terms of functionality. To give you a good “first run” experience, we recommend you start by importing the [[Library/Core]] library into your space. This will give you a couple of useful pages, slash commands, page templates and widgets such as [[Table of Contents]] and [[Linked Mentions]] to start of with. If you have no idea what those are — don’t worry about it. Just keep going, you’ll get the hang of things.

 On this site you see a section “Linked Mentions” appear along the bottom of every page that has incoming links. 👇🏻 This section lists all pages that contain a _link_ to the current page. This allows for easy navigation, and may help you discover linked concepts through these links.
 
 Linked Mentions are not a feature built into SilverBullet directly, but can easily be added by importing the [[Library/Core|core library]].

+It is a common SilverBullet pattern to give people, groups of people and places dedicated pages so you can easily reference them. It then becomes very convenient to mention these pages elsewhere in your space, and using [[Linked Mentions]] you can easily find what _pages_ link back to that page.
+
+The equivalent of this idea the context of [[Plugs/Tasks]] is Linked Tasks. These are tasks that _mention_ a particular page.
+
+# Example workflow
+Let’s say you keep notes of 1-on-1 meetings with people. You have a page for each person where you keep notes for each of your sessions. As you talk to person _A_, something comes up that you need to discuss with person _B_. B _also_ has their own page. What you can do is simply create a task on your note page with _A_ (so you don’t have to context switch) that includes a [[Links|link]] to _B_.
+
+# Example
+Below are two tasks that mention this very page (this is not the general pattern, just for demonstration purposes). Note that the not completed task is listed at the top of this page as well in the “Linked Tasks” widget.
+
+* [ ] [[Linked Tasks]] This is a task
+* [x] [[Linked Tasks]] This is a completed task

 ## Rendering
-There is a [[!silverbullet.md/template/tasks/task]] template you can use to render tasks nicely rather than using the default table (as demonstrated above). When you use this template, you can even cycle through the states of the task by click on its state _inside_ the rendered query, and it will update the state of the _original_ task automatically (although not yet in reverse) — this works across pages.
