+created a people tag, you can add or remove users from it using the
+tag's edit form. This makes it easy to organize your subscriptions

+Private and public people tags
+------------------------------

+A private people tag is only visible to the creator, it cannot be
+subscribed to, but the timeline can be viewed. To create a new
+private prepend a '.' to the tag in the tags editing box. To set
+an existing public tag as private or vice-versa, go to the tag's
+edit page.
