I followed the advice of “just start writing” when I was starting out. Over time, as I learned more, my ideas about tagging and use of properties has changed. I want to use a consistent tagging and properties structure, but my existing notes don’t currently have that. I have a lot of tags and property keys that I am no longer using, and notes that are improperly notated.
What is your workflow for cleaning up the mess you created when getting started?
Good question, I also would like to know the experience of others.
My flow (which I would like to improve):
- open Graph
- find orphan page and open it
- add property
tags::
to page or delete a page
- repeat
Unfortunatly it is not possible to have graph on main screen and open page on sidebar with Shift+left click
Maybe it is possible to create a query to show all orphan pages. It would be better.
I have found the tags plug-in to be a useful aid here.
Too many tags with one or two references might be a sign that you’re over-thinking things and an opportunity to clean up near-duplicates.
But it would not helped if you need clean up pages with no tags
