title: Dominant Append
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
A <<.def "dominant append">> is a frequent occurrence in [[filter|Filters]] processing.
Filters manipulate [[selections|Title Selections]] in which no title can appear more than once, and they often append one selection to another.
This is done in such a way that if the result would contain two copies of the same title, the <<.em earlier>> one is removed. The appended titles thus dominate over any earlier duplicates.
