Dealing with tag merges
When I do a search for a tag, sometimes I get tags that begin with the same characters but have additional characters. This is annoying. For example, #idea returns #idea and #idea_index. I'm using Obsidian, by the way. I was thinking of adding a character at the end of the tags. For example, ;, , or .. But, I'd have to… -

Re: Share your ZK plans for 12 June - 18 June
This week I'm going to try a new workflow for me with an older book. 1) First create a structure note with the outline of the book. 2) Read it chapter by chapter and mark the parts that are important for me. 3) create a note for each marking with keywords like #quotation #idea #argument etc. 4) link from the structure note… -
Re: Will's workflow
@will Lots of great stuff here. I've noticed in both Texts and Atom that if I open an existing markdown doc, it will change aspects of the formatting. One example is as follows: The original doc starts as: Then, if I open in Texts or Atom, it's changed to: Why is this happening and have you figured out a way to reduce the… -
Zettelkasten for scientific research
Hi everyone! I'm a computer science student, struggling with note-taking (read: I'm not taking any notes). I'm trying this Zottelkasten graph-based method to improve and motivate myself. The main reason why I usually don't take notes is that I have a pile of wonderful, painfully written, notebooks in my shelf... that is… -

Ideas I'm thinking about: * Just finished processing The Emotional Craft of Fiction into notes, which has some really cool insight into writing emotionally engaging characters and stories. Mainly notable since I've used ChatGPT for the first time to create a list of titles for possible notes based on the book. Not entirely… -
Re: Dealing with tag merges
So you don't want to merge tags, but avoid "merged" results, i.e. partial matches? Yeah, if you want to rely on full-text search, then there's no way around adding some kind of termination symbol. But remember to add it at the end of the line, too, for uniformity so you get the last tag in the line, too. Could be , if you… -
Re: How to Write a Note That You Will Actually Understand
Wonderful post! I can feel my Zettelkasten power increasing with the gained knowledge! However, one thing confuses me. When you say "explicit form," what do you mean by explicit? Is the form shown in the Zettel, or only clear when you read the content? For illustration: Explicit content-wise # 202110080750 Buffer note and… -
Re: Organizing Resources and handwritten notes - fighting collector's fallacy again
> @Splattack, you just provided this ZK newbie an elegant solution for providIng just enough structure for a physical/digital ZK hybrid system. (I love physical cards and can also see the value/benefit of digital for my actual research/writing outputs, but do not want to “create each card twice”.) Thank you!!!
