The nip mentions:

`e`, `p`, `a`, `r`, or `t` tags. This allows for labeling of events, people, relays, or topics respectively.

So e and a are events.

p is pubkeys, some of which represent people.

r being relays is as of nip01 explicitly not universal (e.g. an `"r"` tag may have a meaning in an event of kind 1 and an entirely different meaning in an event of kind 10002) so I wonder how do r-tags work. I found some 1985 events using r-tags for non-relay stuff.

t are topics? How do these work? In the wild I see events using t tags to reference IMDB movies by their ID.

Who wants to help me clarify the nip a bit?

r just means "resource", so may be any url, including a relay url. t tags should be human readable topics, referencing an id with a t tag is incorrect. All those tags in nip32 are " targets", so the things being labeled. Does that help?

Thanks for the reply. I'll try to come up with a patch for the nip so others don't have to struggle there.
