→Notes as Navigational Shortcuts: GEDCOM uses officiator rather than Officiant
Persistent Links can be created in [[Gramps_Glossary#note|Notes]]. Use the [[Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Link_Editor|Link Editor]] in Notes to organize navigation links to different types of Gramps records following to your own organization methods. Once a Note has linked text, that linked record can be used like a Bookmark. Navigate to that record by holding the {{Man key press|CTRL}} key and clicking on the Linked Text. One note be used as a Linked Index to other Notes with different sets of Links.
An example of a linked note might include an obituary where all the Persons, Places or even the Events are Linked. This makes it easier to navigate to the indirectly related (or even unrelated) pallbearers, funeral officiantsofficiators, or attendees.
Another note might be the transcribed bibliography for the published original research of another genealogist. As you collect digital copies of those originally cited references, the linked bibliography can be used as a Source acquisition checklist. When completely Linked, the Bibliography can be use to navigate through Sources for each citation while searching for unsupported conclusions, inaccuracies or omissions.
