over-subdivision

Chopping pages too finely with Scrapbox and other tools.

If the notes are too fragmented, it is difficult to see the connections.

Often assume that a smaller particle size is appropriate than is actually optimal

That granularity has its advantages in that thumbnails are displayed for each card and the list on the top page looks cool.

Too chopped up as a network of knowledge.

When we were done with all the cards for Expansion: Alliance, we felt that it would not be fun to do this for all the expansions.

I started writing a "supply" story consisting of 10 cards and it got interesting.

Talk about what to think about in a situation where 10 cards interact.

The cards are closely interacting.

Sentences before subdivision have strong links to the sentences before and after.

You can create a state where both are in your brain by simply moving your gaze without having to click and wait a bit.

So "adjacent on page" is a stronger link than a normal link in Scrapbox

Subdivision breaks up this strong link.

They think it's not a good idea to remain disconnected and try to create links between pages.

At this time, even though they "do not know the appropriate link structure in advance," they feel pressure to "link everything now," and they "add links in a messy way.

For example, create a link between each card and the expansion set that contains it

Rustic hierarchical link structure

It's like trying to classify something when you don't know how to properly classify it, and you end up with a messy classification.

Then, "Don't try to classify them, let's collect them in one place first" and "Don't try to chop them, let's put them on one page first" are also valid on the same principle.
