-## Acknowledgement
+## Acknowledgment
Thanks to the [original author](https://github.com/EasyChris/obsidian-to-notion) for developing such a useful plugin that can synchronize Obsidian to Notion. However, the original repository can only sync Name and Tag information. For those like me who use [NotionNext](https://github.com/tangly1024/NotionNext) to set up their website, this presents some limitations. Every time I import, I need to make a lot of modifications.
