When reinventing the wheel and coming up with a new clever way to structure notes or new info to add to the YAML, how do you treat your old notes?

Do you go back and apply the new format or do you just leave them as is only looking forward?

If you revisit old notes, do you have a strategy?

I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions.

    Well it’s not just meta data. I write only the bare necessities in an actual YAML header, the rest of the front matter goes into a comment section below that. This gives me the option to add links as meta data. What I would like to do is to embed older notes with LATCH. This would help with cataloging and indexing, which would in turn help with identifying merge-able topics, relating topics and reviewing notes.
