Let pages emerge. Don't plan a structure — write, select the nouns that keep
coming up, press ⌘L. The wiki shapes itself.
One page per thing, not per day — except your Daily Notes, which are the
thread that ties the things together.
Alias generously. "Q3 plan", "the roadmap", and "Q3 Roadmap" should all be
one page. Three aliases, zero broken trails.
Search before you create.⇧⌘O is the fastest way to discover you
already wrote it — and if you didn't, the same keystroke creates the page: type the
name and choose the Create row.
Make a Template: New Page early. Even two lines — a
$timeDate$ stamp and a <#summary#>
placeholder — make every future page tidier.
Keep a Bucket habit.⇧⌘7 from anywhere, type the thought, get back to
what you were doing. Process the Bucket page weekly.
Right-click more. The selection menu carries Link Selection, Move Selection,
and Ask Your Wiki; images carry Image Size; the page list carries Open in New Tab,
Rename, and Duplicate; tabs carry Close Other Tabs and Close Tabs to the Right.
Ask your own wiki first. Before you re-research something, ⇧⌘A and
ask — the answer with sources is often already yours.
Check the Related palette when starting work on an old topic — past-you
probably left notes that exact-match search won't surface.
Publish something. A Static Publishing site of even three posts changes how
carefully you write the rest of the wiki.
Trust the safety nets. Deletion is reversible for 30 days and every open
makes a backup — refactor your wiki fearlessly.
