When you wrote that evergreen notes should have titles that are declarative or imperative, did you explicitly omit interrogative?
Seems to me that questions form a key part of one's notes.

Questions are a key note type for me, and a subset of them really are evergreen notes (the others are prompts for daily writing that I return to over time). Thanks for the nudge; I'll revise accordingly.
An example of an evergreen interrogative: notes.andymatuschak.org/z6Ndn5nmxLWsrQ. This note is unlikely to ever drop its "?". It's not really a creative prompt—more a nexus.
An example of a prompt-style ? note: notes.andymatuschak.org/z57S2Fte6gAnnM. I return to this regularly. It'll lose its "?" in time.

I'd been doing prompts for a while, keeping track of open questions (tend to be more project specific) and important questions (more general field specific). Your idea to put them onto a spaced repetition schedule (heard in podcast) has been huge for me. Thanks!
