The creator of the Zettelkasten system Niklas Luhmann[1] wrote an impressive amount of papers and books due to his organizational system. I am roughly recalling over 400+ papers and over 60+ books. From my understanding of his system, it allowed him to create 'meta tiers' of his information in a similar but even more advanced way than web hyperlinking. This allowed him to quickly compile related texts and contexts with high efficiency.
