[tw5] Re: How Many Tiddlers Should I Use?
I wasn't planning on anything fancy like that; I just don't know how much metadata is contained in each tiddler, and was wondering if spreading information over too many tiddlers would increase the total amount of data by a problematic amount. For the second part, I was considering if it would take a lot of time entering the contents of fields and dealing with linking the tiddlers together, although now, I realize that that would probably be insignificant.

(Sorry if this is a repeat; I thought I replied, but I don't see my reply, so I'm replying again just in case.) I wasn't planning on doing anything that complex; everything I'm describing is just text and manually created. I don't know how much metadata each tiddler includes, so I didn't know how much of a difference it makes to spread out information so "thinly," and if doing so could lead to the wiki's size being a problem (in terms of storage space or performance) Originally I thought it might be time-consuming to create all of the connections between tiddlers, although after thinking about it more, I realize that it couldn't possibly be that much extra work.

[tw5] How Many Tiddlers Should I Use?
I'm a TiddlyWiki beginner and I'm planning to use it to organize some of my math thoughts. This includes various theorems and their proofs. I have a couple of different ideas for how to organize the information into tiddlers, but I'm not sure which is the best for my case. Here they are: Each theorem gets a single tiddler with its statement and proof in the text field, or perhaps the proof in its own field and transcluded into the text. Each theorem gets a statement tiddler and a proof tiddler. One would link to the other or have a reference to the other in a field, or the proof tiddler would be tagged with the statement tiddler. The proof tiddler would be transcluded into the statement tiddler. Each theorem would not only get a statement and proof tiddler, but also a tiddler for each individual step of the proof. The steps in the proof would link to others or reference them in their fields in order to show how each step depends on earlier ones. A table of contents macro would be used to bring all of the steps (and their "dependencies") together into a full proof. My favorite so far is the third; I like how the connections between steps are not just written out, but represented via links. However I am worried that it will be more time consuming to create all of those tiddlers, and that the number of tiddlers would make the wiki too large, taking up too much space and maybe causing performance issues. So which of these options is probably the best for this scenario? Can TiddlyWiki handle the volume of tiddlers required for the third option, and would it be substantially more time-consuming? Is there a better option that I haven't thought of? Thanks for reading my long question and thanks in advance for any answers.

[tw5] How Many Tiddlers Should I Use?
I'm a TiddlyWiki beginner and am planning to use it to organize some of my mathematical thoughts. Part of what I'm hoping to keep track of is some simple proofs of various mathematical statements. I am not sure how I should divide the relevant information into tiddlers. Some ideas I have had so far: 1. A single tiddler per statement, with the proof included either in the text of the tiddler along with the statement or in a field (transcluding this field into the text)] 2. Two tiddlers per statement: one for the statement itself, and one for the proof. The proof would then be connected to the statement by a link, a field of one of the tiddlers, or by tagging it with the statement tiddler. The proof tiddler would be transcluded into the statement tiddler 3. Each statement has a statement tiddler and a proof tiddler, with each step of the proof having its own tiddler. The steps would be linked to each other to show the dependence of each step on previous steps and a table of contents macro would be used to include the proof in the statement tiddler. The third option seems the most TiddlyWiki-esque to me, and I like how the connections between steps are not just written out, but represented via links, but it seems like it overkill; I would be using a full tiddler for each line or so of text in the proof, and that sounds like it may be more time consuming and lead to too many tiddlers (possibly causing performance issues?). So which of these options is probably the best for this scenario? Can TiddlyWiki handle the volume of tiddlers required for the third option, and would it be substantially more time-consuming? Is there a better option that I haven't thought of?
