Fleeting notes are a valuable scratchpad for our messy thoughts — it's natural to have a messy input since they are catered only to yourself.

With messy thoughts and inputs, you should [[file:2020-06-25-12-37-23.org][Create a writing inbox to store your thoughts]] all in one place.
You could search through them with various search techniques to quickly retrieve them (see [[file:2020-06-27-16-21-47.org][Apply search tools and techniques for your digital library]]).
Then, select certain fleeting notes and improve upon them eventually creating [[file:2020-05-07-21-53-21.org][Evergreen notes]].
Update the files for convention Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the following discussions at https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/. The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution in any way. 2021-04-01 16:08:15 +00:00			`#+title: Fleeting notes`

Reformat the wiki Create a unified format for my wiki. Unfortunately, since most of my notes are created on a whim and I don't care much about metadata at the time, the timestamps are only approximations from my memory. 2020-09-08 21:28:33 +00:00			`With messy thoughts and inputs, you should [[file:2020-06-25-12-37-23.org][Create a writing inbox to store your thoughts]] all in one place.`
