A Permanent note is a note that will remain in my Digital garden. It is not inviolate and may be modified, but it should not be deleted.12 When modifications are material, either update the note with an explanation of the change, or create a second note referring to the first.

The term is used widely when discussing Zettelkasten but has more broad implications.
