Sequencing is an issue in the application. All new notes are given sequence # 1,000. Notes are sorted by the sequence number not alphabetically by Name. As the KBase grows, it will be difficult to easily find a specific note. The sequence can have both positive and negative numbers. The sequence goes from largest negative number to largest positive number, -1 comes before 1. The limit is +/- 999,999,999.
Therefore it sorts by the largest negative number first. In order to present notes, the way I feel they should be seen I've created a sequencing system.
Parent Category: initial spaces of 20, from -100 to 100, plenty of room to add a parent in-between.
The rest are determined by substituting numbers for the first 4 letters in the title.
Child Category: Only utilizes the first 2 letter of the title.
Backup > B -21 + a 01 = -2,101 Software> S 15 + o 15 = 1,515 Software as a Service> S 15 + S 19 = 1,519
Articles: First four letters of title, unless a note should be seen at the beginning, then start with -22, followed by the next 3 substitutions.

ALSO BE COGNIZANT of each notes Visibility, I'll put that up shortly.
* The application considers each item an article or document, even though there may not be an actual document attached. I am referring to them as notes.
