For people with a personal knowledge management system:

How do you keep a reliable “current state” of a project when information is scattered across old notes, newer notes, references, files, screenshots, and drafts?

Do you use a master note, MOCs, tags, periodic reviews, project dashboards, backlinks, or something else?

I’m especially curious how you handle stale notes or contradictions between older and newer information.

For people who use Obsidian for projects:

How do you keep track of the current “truth” of a project when info is scattered across old notes, new notes, screenshots, PDFs, spreadsheets, and drafts?

For example, when older notes contradict newer decisions, or when you vaguely remember “I wrote this somewhere” but can’t remember where.

Do you keep a master project note, use MOCs, tags, Dataview, folders, search, backlinks, or just manually re-read things when needed?

I’m trying to improve how I manage project context inside my vault.
