New Area?

I’m thinking about restructuring part of my Johnny Decimal system and would appreciate input.

Currently, items that don’t fit elsewhere go into 00_System-Mgmt. I also have 19_Tag-Glossary as a controlled vocabulary for system-wide tags. But:

  • I want to keep 00–09_System minimal (just the standard Zeros).
  • The tag glossary doesn’t fit in 10–19_Life.

I’m considering a new area: 90–99_Meta, for meta-level items:

  • 90_Orga
  • 91_Tag-Glossary

The issue: I can’t think of more categories for it. Is that enough to justify a whole new area, or should I stick with the current structure?

This is why we left a few spare in the zeros. Use 06 or 07!

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I forgot to mention a crucial detail: I use the alternative layout for the standard zeros, which means categories 06 and 07 are reserved and unavailable to me (if I want not to break the pattern).

Aha! Well if you’ve no room left there, I’d go to the 90s yeah.
