# PKMS ideas and Taxonomy [Wikipedia Link](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_knowledge_management) ( Type: System ) ## Description Personal knowledge-management system (PKMS) notes and the full folder taxonomy used to organize this vault — a running brainstorm of PKM concepts (search vs. orienteering, predictive information management, project vs. meta-project information) plus an older draft numbering scheme (`.000`–`.100`) for journals, projects, research subjects, tools, media, data, and work folders. The current vault's `100`/`200`/`900`-series folder structure descends from this draft. ## Key Tags #pkm #taxonomy ## Essential Works - [Johnny.Decimal](https://johnnydecimal.com/) - numbering system that this vault's `NNN.000`-style folder taxonomy is directly modeled on%% ## Details %% none yet %% ### Notes %% Preserved verbatim below — this is a long personal brainstorm/outline and an old draft folder taxonomy; content is kept as originally written rather than cleaned up. %% https://johnnydecimal.com/ Pim Concepts search vs orienteering search permits flattening, symbolic links permit multiple organization systems depending on context, eg different links and tools in an email, _Predictive_ Information Management, incorporating: Autocomplete in documents and dialogs likely snippets of code or info in a shade Project information management + tasks + files + content + requirements + notes + links + contacts Meta-Project information management: + Reporting and documenting: + Time on tasks + versions use orienteering for `Organizing`, not `Keeping` eg. + use mind map for restructuring a large flat collection of documents or tags + use folders for structuring a print document or collection #### project outline *#+TITLE: dymaxion #+STARTUP: indent #+STARTUP: nofold :PROPERTIES: :Project: Dymaxion :Location: Home :Project-file: ~/projects/dymaxion/project-outlne.org :Client: Me :Billable: No :Next-Action: Setup dym-clock-in :TAGS: :org-mode:GTD:Productivity :END: ### Concepts and Theories %% none yet %% ### Related Practices - [[Obsidian]] - the software this PKMS taxonomy is implemented in - [[Research Tools]] - overlaps with the broader research-workflow software build ### Key Practitioners %% none yet %% ### Institutional Affiliations %% none yet %% ## References ### Primary Sources Bibliography %% none yet %% ### Secondary Sources Bibliography %% none yet %%
