Review Notes
This pass treats short standalone pages as valid digital garden entries. If a page refers to a distinct useful concept, person, practice, text, or example, keep it separate even when it is only one sentence today. Do not merge thin pages merely because they are thin.
For Life Itself material, distinguish durable Tao reference from actual project/task state:
tao.lifeitself.org: 30life-itself/community issue: 7
Plum Village-derived practice notes should be kept, and likely belong in Tao when they are Life Itself culture/practice reference material. Publication and source/licensing checks remain relevant, but they are not drop/merge reasons.
Created guesses use source frontmatter first, filename dates second, and the first git-add date in ~/src/lifeitself/community as a fallback. Word counts are approximate counts from the source markdown file.

Recommended Migration Phases
- Migrate high-confidence
rufuspollock.compages, starting with core concepts and already essay-like pieces. - Review
blog_postable: yesandmaybeitems for possible posts or canonical pages. - Create GitHub issues in
life-itself/communityfor project/task-shaped Life Itself items rather than turning them into Tao pages. - Move or sync durable Tao items into
~/src/lifeitself/tao, especially principles, culture, handbook, durable strategy, and reusable operational knowledge. - Move or sync DDS items into
~/src/lifeitself/dds-course, especially assessment, developmental theory, and course-specific practice notes. - Decide remaining low-confidence and
dropitems after checking backlinks and duplicates.
