Summary: Saving web pages, selections, or excerpts into a knowledge system.

What it means

Web clipping preserves online material that may change or disappear. It works best when the saved clip includes context, source, and reason for capture.

How it shows up in personal knowledge management

It connects to capture, article-notes, read-it-later, citation-practices, and source-trust.

Common mistakes

• Saving pages with no extractable body.
• Clipping without source URL or date.
