Answer 1

reese:

@[user_id:1:name] - It will replace it with the 'name' which you have given

@[user_id:0] - This will notify the user BUT it will happen when you MANUALLY typing it in wall or comment section NOT through graph api, say for eg., if you want to notify this user @[user_id:0] so you are appending this text in message parameter of https://graph.facebook.com/feed api it won't work, I hope you understand :)
