# Simple Reminders: Master Quotation, Passage, and Thought Index > [!summary] The shortest account > **Simple Reminders** is a corpus of addressable quotations, passages, and thoughts designed to work simultaneously as poster sources, readable publication pages, and nodes in a reciprocal knowledge graph. This collection is the master discovery layer for the whole Reminder library. It includes Edge-sourced passages, dramatic and literary material, scientific and technical quotations, and material drawn from other verified publications and recordings. > [!important] Publication and provenance boundary > Folder state is workflow state. Entries in named category folders form the production corpus. `reminders/unverified/` is a verification queue, not a published category, and its entries remain separated below until their exact wording, attribution, and source context are established. `reminders/Examples/` contains format demonstrations. Parser fixtures under `reminders/tests/` are controls and are deliberately excluded. The authoritative provenance for a quotation remains its own `Sources and Context` section and linked original source. ## How to read this collection 1. Use the category status table for a compact map of the corpus and its acquisition queue. 2. Use the production index to browse every category-filed Reminder. 3. Use the verification queue to find promising material that must not yet be represented as source-verified. 4. Use [[collections/Edge|Edge]] and [[collections/Westworld|Westworld]] when you want source-specific provenance and interpretation rather than the corpus-wide topical view. 5. Follow each Reminder outward through its Related Articles and Collections and Related Topics sections; follow the reciprocal quotation sections in the wiki back to the Reminder. ## Corpus status This generated snapshot indexes **1,117 content entries**: **681 production reminders**, **434 unverified candidates**, and **2 format examples**. It covers **28 production category folders** and preserves **21 intended categories** in the verification queue. | Category | Production | Unverified queue | Combined | |---|---:|---:|---:| | AI Control | 100 | 26 | 126 | | Capture | 3 | 0 | 3 | | Civilization | 24 | 33 | 57 | | Connectomics | 12 | 11 | 23 | | Consciousness | 62 | 83 | 145 | | Cybernetics | 19 | 4 | 23 | | Deep Time | 6 | 6 | 12 | | Digital Afterlife | 5 | 16 | 21 | | Digital Life | 9 | 8 | 17 | | Evolution | 123 | 15 | 138 | | Existential Risk | 20 | 24 | 44 | | Extended Mind | 3 | 0 | 3 | | Extinction | 0 | 7 | 7 | | Identity | 22 | 49 | 71 | | Information | 18 | 24 | 42 | | Machine Succession | 99 | 45 | 144 | | Memory | 11 | 9 | 20 | | Mind Upload | 13 | 17 | 30 | | Neural Interfaces | 31 | 7 | 38 | | Personhood | 3 | 0 | 3 | | Planetary Mind | 2 | 0 | 2 | | Preservation | 6 | 8 | 14 | | Risk Debate | 13 | 5 | 18 | | Selection | 3 | 0 | 3 | | Simulation | 19 | 26 | 45 | | Space Survival | 4 | 11 | 15 | | Surveillance | 1 | 0 | 1 | | Thermodynamics | 1 | 0 | 1 | | Westworld | 49 | 0 | 49 | | **Total** | **681** | **434** | **1,115** | ## Source-specific collections and major routes - **Institutional quotation archive:** [[collections/Edge|Edge]] preserves the complete Edge Annual Question indexes, direct response provenance, promotion ledgers, and the Edge-derived subset of this corpus. - **Dramatic consciousness archive:** [[collections/Westworld|Westworld]] and [[collections/Westworld Exploration|Westworld Episode Exploration]] route the Westworld quotations and Robert Ford monologues into episode, character, and consciousness-engineering contexts. - **Project history and publishing system:** [[projects/Simple Reminders - Global Influence Operations and Information Warfare|Simple Reminders — Global Influence Operations and Information Warfare]] documents the larger project, its publishing architecture, reach, feedback systems, and strategic lessons. - **Consciousness route:** [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] organizes reminders about identity, memory, persistence, reconstruction, transfer, and hosting. - **Successor route:** [[collections/Machine Succession|Machine Succession]] organizes reminders about evolutionary transition, artificial intelligence, civilizational inheritance, and successor carriers. - **Technical route:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] organizes reminders about connectomics, neural sensing, decoding, stimulation, interfaces, standards, and neurorights. ## Production reminder index The sections below enumerate every content file currently placed in a production category. Categories describe the proposition expressed by a reminder, not merely the speaker, source institution, or publication venue. ### AI Control — 100 This category concerns alignment, governance, autonomy, behavioral steering, and the problem of retaining meaningful human control. - [[reminders/AI Control/A Mechanistic Brain Can Strengthen Human Dignity by Michael McCullough|A Mechanistic Brain Can Strengthen Human Dignity by Michael McCullough]] - [[reminders/AI Control/A Self-aware AI Would Immediately Redesign Itself by Frank Wilczek|A Self-aware AI Would Immediately Redesign Itself by Frank Wilczek]] - [[reminders/AI Control/A Technology May Halt Science to Preserve Itself by George Dyson|A Technology May Halt Science to Preserve Itself by George Dyson]] - [[reminders/AI Control/AI and Knowledge Representation Are Converging by Daniel L.

Rebuilding validates filename/H1 identity, required permalinks, production folder/category agreement, intended categories for quarantined entries, and permalink uniqueness before replacing the index.
