The main contextual queries I prefer are "unrequited" & "unmentioned" notes.
### Unrequited notes, by link
These notes point directly to this note. But this note doesn't point back.
```dataview
table file.mtime.year + "-" + file.mtime.month + "-" + file.mtime.day as Modified
from [[Habits MOC]]
and !outgoing([[Habits MOC]])
sort file.mtime desc
```
### Unmentioned notes, with related tag
These notes have the tag `#on/Habit` and are not mentioned above.
```dataview
table file.mtime.year + "-" + file.mtime.month + "-" + file.mtime.day as Modified
from #on/habit
and !outgoing([[Habits MOC]])
sort file.mtime desc
```
