like almost every other Markdown editor, Obsidian lets you enter metadata into a YAML block at the top of the file – you can structure it everything from a basic title/date/tags to including a Pandoc set of tags right on up to a full Zotero/Dublin Core attribution set – and one of the tags that comes up commonly is lang: for the language – I’ve collected several quotes that caught my interest over the years, but my notes are for me, not for bibliographic references – do I enter the full language as a tag: #English; as a language entry: lang: en; or as an extended language entry: lang: en-US?
