# curation > A question that came up for me, musing about the conversation is what it is I am trying to automate or reduce friction for? If I am trying to automate [[curation]] (getting from crumbs to articles automagically) then that would be undesirable. Only I should curate, as it is my learning and agency that is involved. Having [[sensemaking]] aids that surface patterns, visualise links etc would be very helpful. Also in terms of timelines, and in terms of shifting vocabulary (tags) for similar content. > > – [On Wikis, Blogs and Note Taking – Interdependent Thoughts](https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2020/04/on-wikis-blogs-and-note-taking/)
