I didn’t play it safe with this submission. Especially considering it’s my first paper.

I aimed high, knowing full well it could get desk-rejected.

The journal is no joke.

But here we are, with major revisions and a shot. Worth it.

I’m very #grateful to my PIs for their support!

Still, I’m grateful.

We made it past editorial review, got thoughtful, constructive feedback, and a real shot at publication.

I’m happy to put in the work to make this paper stronger.

Let’s go.

“Just revise and resubmit,” they said.

“It’ll be easy,” they said.

Me: reading “please simulate a larger system, rethink your figures, clarify stochasticity, and maybe restructure the whole narrative.”

OK then.

If you’ve written a PhD proposal before, what helped you the most?

If you haven’t, what part scares you the most?

Structure I’m planning to use:

- Intro (why it matters)

- Lit review (what’s been done)

- Methods (how I’ll do it)

- Contributions (what’s new)

- Timeline (in a perfect world, I suppose)

- References

I learned that Canadian PhD proposals can be up to 15 pages. It’s not just about “what I want to study” but also about proving I can actually do it.

Not if you are publishing Obsidian -> WordPress. That’s how my blog is setup at the moment.

But I’m not too sure if you are using Obsidian Publish directly via CloudFlate and a custom domain. This might work and might be the solution you’re looking for, if your goal is the online wiki website.

Private plugin, not price:) It seems we can’t edit the posts yet here.

Reminder to future me:

You can learn just enough about a tech stack in 24 -48 hours to build something real, useful, and working — as long as you don’t care how “clean” the code looks… yet.

But document the process well while it’s still fresh your mind so you don’t forget what the heck you did!

So I built one — it syncs notes and updates existing posts.

It works. Blog post coming soon. And hopefully, it’ll soon become a community plugin.

3. To be able to publish and update if I want to edit existing published notes, I wrote custom plugin for Obsidian to solve that problem. But it’s still a price plugin, that need to be approved by Obsidian team to become a community plugin. Hopefully soon.

Hi! I’ve been looking into this recently. So far, I found a couple of options.
1. help.obsidian.md/publish/doma... using Obsidian Publish
2. If using a WordPress site, there is a plugin to publish your Obsidian notes to WP. But it doesn’t seem to be able to update existing published notes.
Custom domains - Obsidian Help
You can set up a custom domain or subdomain for your Obsidian Publish site.
help.obsidian.md
