Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Restructuring the knowledge graph as it is necessary with progress of lectures and research leaves a lot of unneeded stubs and assets. That leads to clutter.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to have a few tools/functions that allow to declutter the workspace, e.g. delete all unlinked files (images) and empty stubs as they are not needed anymore. So that each file in the vault brings some information to the table.

delete all unlinked files (images) pls consider an "exclusion list" that one can maintain an "inbox folder" of assets, which are not yet linked

@funnym0nk3y - have you tried the Dendron: Doctor to delete stubs? IF that works for you - does this issue now mainly ask for deleting unlinked files?

funnym0nk3y commented 3 years ago

Yes, this issue was mainly created to request deletion of unlinked assets. The stub cleanup idea just came when writing this issue.
