SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Maintaining a well-connected knowledge base requires a consistent approach to linking related pages and ensuring discoverability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Always Link: ensure critical pages (People, Projects, Tasks, Meetings, Tools) link to key targets.
  • On First Mention: encourage linking on first appearance of concepts, tools, and references.
  • Linking Guidelines: provide syntax examples and best practices to maintain discoverability across the knowledge base.

Quick Start

Apply bidirectional linking rules to new notes and audit existing content for missing links.

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain bidirectional wikilinks in a markdown knowledge base?

To maintain bidirectional wikilinks in a markdown knowledge base, apply consistent linking guidelines like Always Link and On First Mention to strengthen content discoverability across teams, projects, and research notes.

What are the best practices for wikilink syntax to improve content discoverability?

Best practices for wikilink syntax involve using standard formatting, enforcing an Always Link rule for critical pages, and linking on the first mention of concepts to ensure consistent navigation and content discoverability across the graph.

How do I audit existing markdown notes for missing links?

You can audit existing markdown notes for missing links by applying bidirectional linking rules to review content, identifying unlinked first mentions of projects or tools, and updating pages to enforce the Relative Path guideline.

When should I use an Always Link guideline in my knowledge graph?

You should use the Always Link guideline in your knowledge graph when establishing connections between critical pages like People, Projects, Tasks, Meetings, and Tools to ensure key targets remain consistently discoverable.

Does bidirectional linking work for connecting meeting notes and research documents?

Yes, bidirectional linking works for connecting meeting notes and research documents by finding and maintaining standard wikilinks across these content types, strengthening the overall knowledge graph structure across different teams.

Why are my wikilinks not improving content discoverability across teams?

Wikilinks may not improve content discoverability across teams if they lack consistent linking guidelines, fail to link on first mention, or do not use standard syntax and relative paths to ensure navigation across the knowledge base.
