Very basic question
I've just installed The Archive and have been looking around the forum to get my bearings. I notice that some people use a heading like the following: Title: Approaches to a Typewriter text component ID: 201707081109 Tags: #nstextview ##outline #typewriter-mode I assume there's a command for generating the template, but… -
Re: What do people use tags for in a zettelkasten?
Why Tags Based on Information Types? PDF at GitHub: https://github.com/groepl/Take-Useful-Notes/blob/main/Assets/idea_to_note_2024-11-14.pdf While reading Bob Doto's book, A System for Writing, the question came to me: "What do my notes look like?" Looking closer, I could see that my notes contain different types of… -

Total files: 4242 Permanent Notes: 1000 (really, 😀) Good Notes: 20,1 % Definition of Good (DoG) * Notes in predefined folder "3_Permanent Notes" * Timestamp "created" and "modified" in… -

Ideas I'm exploring with my ZK * How to update templates for Zettelkasten: Provide a strategy to minimize cost of change when you need an update of your structured templates and you still have many notes created with the old versions of your template in your Zettelkasten. * Scalability of a Zettelkasten: Which design… -
Re: Types of permanent notes
@Edmund since I don't do such a thing myself, I'm curious what sort of affordance your #type/NoteName tagging provides you with (especially if you're using more than just those two)? Do you use them regularly for search or filtering, and if so for what reason? How does it help? To me it look likes extra metadata/work, but… -
Re: Types of permanent notes
Thank you for these helpful insights. For me it was an opportunity to inspect my tagging for types of notes. A long list. Personally I often used #type/sketchnote and #type/question. But I will spend a little time and effort to build up an improved architecture for tagging. -
Emerging overview with structure notes
Hey, I want to share the gist of a few recent happy moments of Zettelkasten note-taking with you and find out what you do in your work to achieve a similar effect -- or if all of this is totally new to you. Against all odds, I did manage to write a Zettel note or two during 2017. I did not process all (any) of the… -

Re: Inspect and Adapt - Why You Need Empirical Process Control for Your Zettelkasten
Yes, I'm aware of being way too hard on myself. Before I started to inspect and adapt my Zettelkasten based on data analytics, I was pretty happy with my ZK and my workflow. And I'm still happy. With my: 7 Criteria for Good Notes 1. Notes in predefined folder "3_Permanent Notes" 2. Timestamp "created" in properties section… -
Re: Zettelkasten Analytics keeps me focused
Thank you @Will for sharing your personal doughnut chart. You are using a slightly different structure, but may be it’s possible to find some similarities: * The biggest part is a “Other ZK Notes” element, may be my “Permanent Notes”. * “Hubs- and Subhubs” may be my “Structure Notes”. * “Books Processed” are part of my…
