Does anyone know how to query your vault for ghost notes?
I regularly create links to things without actually clicking the link and creating a note, as I know its an important concept I want to expand on but I don’t want to get distracted diverging onto another other topics. They’re like “schrodinger” notes - there is a link to them, I can see them in graph view, search for them in the search bar (if i remember the name), link to them again somewhere else, BUT they’re uncreated.
I’d like to resurface them and start fleshing them out, but I can’t figure out how to get them automatically listed. I tried using a base and a dataview query, but quickly realised they only index created notes. The graph shows uncreated files so I know its possible, but can’t work out how to do it. I’m assuming I’ll need some custom code..
Try “Find orphaned files (files with no backlinks) and broken links“ plugin (available through community plugins). It fits your needs an even more. Showing lists of orphaned notes, lists of empty links and some other stuff.
