# PKM Content Organization - Decision Note
|
|
|
|
## Analysis (2025-12-29)
|
|
|
|
After reviewing both locations containing PARA methodology content:
|
|
- **[300-resources/Personal Knowledge Management](300-resources/Personal Knowledge Management)** - 8 files (course notes, references, essays)
|
|
- **[100-project/Personal/PKM/PARA](100-project/Personal/PKM/PARA)** - 3 files (implementation guide)
|
|
|
|
## Decision: Keep Current Structure
|
|
|
|
**Rationale:**
|
|
1. **Different purposes, complementary content:**
|
|
- `300-resources/PKM/` contains **source material** from BASB courses, external essays, and learning references
|
|
- `100-project/PKM/PARA/` contains **implementation documentation** specific to this vault's setup
|
|
|
|
2. **PARA principle alignment:**
|
|
- Resources = generally useful reference material (course notes, methodology explanations)
|
|
- Projects = active work on implementing/customizing the system
|
|
|
|
3. **Content breakdown:**
|
|
- **300-resources/PKM/** (Reference material):
|
|
- BASB Class 7 & 8 notes (course content)
|
|
- PARA Notes.md & PARA Notes from class.md (methodology reference)
|
|
- Gregory Gundersen essay (writing philosophy)
|
|
- Dickens deep work (anecdote)
|
|
- Images.md (visual references)
|
|
|
|
- **100-project/PKM/PARA/** (Implementation):
|
|
- Methodology.md (how to apply in Obsidian)
|
|
- Workflows.md (practical examples for this vault)
|
|
- Outline.md (project plan)
|
|
|
|
## Cleanup Actions Taken
|
|
|
|
✅ Moved arc42 from `300-resources/PKM/` to `300-resources/Development/Architecture/` (was misplaced)
|
|
|
|
## Recommendation
|
|
|
|
No merge needed. The two locations serve distinct purposes and should remain separate. If PKM project becomes inactive, move implementation docs to `200-area/Personal Development/` (ongoing learning responsibility) and keep course references in `300-resources/`.
