# [[<% tp.file.title %>]]
<% await tp.file.move("/Extras/People/" + tp.file.title) %>

## Meetings
```dataview
TABLE file.cday as Created, summary AS "Summary"
FROM "Timestamps/Meetings" where contains(file.outlinks, [[]])
SORT file.cday DESC
```

Hey @dannberg I wanted to build upon this template with slightly different use case. So what I want to do is as follows

1. Create note from template and provide the person's name as title.
2. Then I want to move the note to my People Notes folder by appending the current date to the existing file title.
3. Then refer to the name portion of the file title in different sections of the template

# [[<% tp.file.title %>]]
<% await tp.file.move("/People Notes/" + tp.file.title + "--" + tp.date.now()) %>


## Discussed Items:
- <% tp.file.cursor() %>

## Action Items

- ### For me
	- 
- ## For [[<% tp.file.title.split("--")[0] %>]]
	- <>

However this does not seem to work because the file move operation happens immediately when I create the note and entering the title removes the data from it and even if I don't remove the date, the tp.file.title does not give the title with date. I know this might not be trivial but is there a way to achieve this ? I am pretty new to Obsidian so maybe I am missing something very obvious here.

@dannberg Upgrade on the meetings dataview:
Now you have to put the file link manually, like so:

TABLE file.cday as Created, summary AS "Summary"
FROM "Timestamps/Meetings" 
WHERE contains(file.outlinks, [[My file name]])
SORT file.cday DESC

You can use this.file.link, which makes the whole process automatic.

TABLE file.cday as Created, summary AS "Summary"
FROM "Timestamps/Meetings" 
WHERE contains(file.outlinks, this.file.link)
SORT file.cday DESC

Intersting, in my vault, this table works without putting My file name in there (just the blank [[]]. But explicitly saying this.file.link is definitely better practice.
