@Jay I continue to see get (Deleted Item) popping up here and there, and while it may sometimes be my fault, I really don’t think it is in all cases. This could potentially be impacting links, mirrors, and attachments, and it is starting to make me worry a lot about how much I can rely on Legend to retain critical items.
Is it possible to add a tool/option for beta users, which saves some redundant info within link/attachment items? For example, instead of just saving the target-item ID (long gibberish string), could these items also keep a plaintext copy of the item/attachment they are linking-to? That way when they break, it’s possible to quickly see what they “used to” be?
I’m seeing these show up here and there, always seemingly in branches that have been unattended for a while. Long enough that I definitely can’t remember what that item “should” be. I can’t recall if there used to be a mirror there which ‘degraded’ into a link and then broke, if it was always a link (which then broke), or if it was actually an email, OneNote, or other attachment that I deleted. In some cases, these look like they might have just appeared in that spot arbitrarily, since individual items don’t “belong” there according to my outline structure. I suspect they are emails but I’m pretty good about archiving ‘real’ messages and only deleting true trash. So while this could be an occasional email-deletion issue, it’s hard to accept that accounts for all of them.
The only way to investigate this is to swim through my revision history. I can use the ‘created’ and ‘modified’ dates to see the item in question, but it still appears in the history as (deleted item) so I can’t really get anywhere with it.
