to it, you can accomplish that like this:
-\\[[inline pages="blog/* !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]
+ \[[inline pages="blog/* and !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]
You can even create an automatically generated list of all the pages on the
wiki, with the most recently added at the top, like this:
-\\[[inline pages="* !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]
+ \[[inline pages="* and !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]

+all pages that have a given tag:
+
+ \[[inline pages="link(life)"]]
+
+Or include some tags and exclude others:
+
+ \[[inline pages="link(debian) and !link(social)"]]
