Started with #logseq a while ago. The best beginner tip I could find was "don't think about how it works, start by writing everything on the daily journal."

Now, how do I make use of the linked references on a page without duplicating what I've written? Embed the block?

@preslavrachev Thanks, you're on my graph now! :) I might be already overthinking but...what if you find that something you wrote contains a mistake? Correct the original entry, or regard the mistake as a piece of knowledge itself?

@mnf @preslavrachev Another thing to consider: sometimes, the first idea might not be in error ... but seems to be, given new information you encounter (that really *is* in error).

That's where a tag like #ContradictedBy can come in handy. When new info conflicts with a previously recorded node, just indent new info beneath it and use the #ContradictedBy tag.

Other useful tags: SupportedBy, ReferencedBy, SimilarTo, etc.

In my experience it's better to review a journal page and use the Move Block plugin to move notes to the most relevant pages. It can be set to leave a block reference in the journal.

This should also make the Graph View more accurate.
