2 years ago note composer was introduced in Obsidian after this thread (Merge notes and update backlinks) from the forum.
However, it still lacks one feature suggested in the thread - to leave the original name of the merged note as an alias whenever it is refereced.
Imagine merging [[machine intelligence]]
into [[AI]]
. Now all references are just [[AI]]
, [[AI]]
and [[AI]]
. But I’d rather have [[AI|Machine intelligence]]
whenever the old file was mentioned.
