Please be patient with potentially idiotic questions. There is not a lot
of info out there (and www.plannerlove.com seems to be
unreachable).

I trying to use planner, but am a bit confused as to what it is and
what it is aimed at. First I will list my issues/Questions and then
explain what I hope to use it for.

1) When I create task from buffer in a w3m page, the resulting hyperlink
only takes me to the top of the page. is this normal?
2) If I create a task from buffer from my own "document" text file, when
I later edit that document the hyperlinks jump back to the wrong
place. is this normal and to be expected? I see it just saves the line
position. Isnt this pretty useless when creating tasks from a dynamic
document which is under review and prone to changes? I cant see an easy
way to fix this, but I just want to be sure it is as it should be.
3) Why do notes created from task not get deleted when I delete that
task?
4) Lets say I am editing "book.txt". I create task from buffer and
specify a plan page of "Book". I can see "Book" tasks in my "plan" page
with "Book" linked in the tas line. But if I reschedule the task using
c-c and specify, say, +1w, the Book link is lost. Why is this? Why can
the task not stay in Book.muse? Instead it gets moved to a
+1w.muse file. 
5) I am confused as to the role of muse here. Could someone maybe
explain how all this fits together? I have read the wiki but it is
confusing - The muse/planner boundary is not clear to me. When I "plan"
I see a "x.muse" page created. Is this the "master" for the tasks or
just a pretty print of my tasks and notes for display in emacs?
6) The entire "wiki" thing has gone right over my head. Can someone
explain the publishing side of things and how "wiki" comes into it. Wiki
as a physical rendering or "wiki" as in a way of thinking about the
overall collection of related information for tasks in hand? 

I am looking for a good tutorial on using planner.

I had an idea to use it for keeping character notes on a small book I am
writing - I  maintain a special task page for that document. Would I
"create task from buffer" from my book document and keep tasks & notes in an
separate "Plans/Mybook" plan file?

Please be patient and sorry if some of the questions are a little daft :
there is quite a paradigm shift involved in using this stuff I think.
