For a while, I used tags to define my search workflow (Birth to search, birth found, etc.). I had dozens of tags for this/these workflows.
I’ve now replaced all of that with research attributes. They look like this, for example:
Type: Research workflow
Description: [Marriage - WfwV4] Status (Waiting/Running/Checking/Finished) [R]; Research (Running/Finished) [R]; Date known (X/Imprecise/Range) [R]; Place known (X) ; Searched source @Archive/Claimed @Town hall (X) ; Source obtained (X) ; Source entered (X)
So with filters I can know where I have to work on something. They generally have a To Do note and sometimes an Hypotheses note.
Whey they have one or more Hypothesis notes, I add this/these notes in one/multiple attributes looking like this:
Type: Claim
Description: Status (Unproven/Proven/Refuted) [U] - [Subject] Claim
It can include multiple To Do notes. Each citation is of type “Subject, Claim. Not found in that source” or it’s the citation proving the claim.
Probably, or not, I’ve thousands of filters
Some are basic ones, some more complexes and some are Supertool based when i haven’t found what I’m looking for in regular filters. Some interact with tags to contradict other filters.
Not yet. But I haven’t lost hope of automatically generating my Notion pages using the Gramps API. Someday…
I’ve tried to adapt the better way my naming conventions for my Sources, Tags and Filters. e.g:
Source: CountryCode-CityCode, City. RegisterType: Subtype (Year), Type → FR-75100, Paris. Census (1926)
Tag: Category[Type] Specific information → Filter[False positive] P.345p
