Restricts empty-card deletion to new cards only, preserving reviewed cards and optionally tagging notes that would otherwise be deleted.
Adds a Tags command to the reviewer, editor, and browser context menus for toggling the current note's tags.
Creates many Anki notes at once from flat JSON arrays or mapped CSV/TSV data, supporting decks, tags, validation, warnings, and editable cards before bulk creation.
Adds Anki Browser buttons to merge or duplicate selected notes, merge tags, delete originals, choose merge order and field separator, and combine duplicates.
Lets you quickly add or edit tags while reviewing, with configurable shortcuts for specific tags and optional burying or suspending of cards or notes.
Lets the card browser display one row per note instead of per card, toggled via the Notes menu or configurable shortcut, with actions applied to notes.
Sometime, you press «Empty cards...», and anki also delete note. Because when a note has no more card, anki deletes it. (see [https://github.com/Arthur-Milchior/anki/blob/master/documentation/deletion.md] for more information about deletion)
However, maybe you didn't actually want to delete the whole note and lose its entire content. May be you thought anki were going to delete a few card which became empty, not realizing it will in fact delete EVERY cards, and thus delete the note, and its fields, and its tag...
With this add-on, when you press «Empty cards», cards are deleted as usual, with one exception. If deleting the cards leave the note empty, then the cards are not deleted. Instead, the tag NoteWithNoCard is added to those notes, and the browser is opened to show those notes.
You can still delete those notes if that's what you want, but you have either to disable this add-on and restart anki, or to delete them manually from the browser.
The tag NoteWithNoCard is automatically removed from notes which now have a card, when you use «empty cards». This is probably what you want, so that the tag states the truth.
Note that a note with no cards can also occurs because of the synchronization process. In which card, this add-on won't save the note. Instead, you can save it using add-on 1135180054.
