I do this too, but I find I rarely have time for importing.
Edit to add: for vocabulary words I’ve come up with a set of scripts and vim macros that put the definition (from wiktionary) and some tags into a csv file for importing into Anki. But even with this amount of automation it’s more work than I normally want to deal with.
highly discourage this method. “reviewing” starts taking too long and one starts procrastinating.
i copy and paste stuff i want to learn to a text file, and when i have down time go into it and turn it into question/answer/tag.
once everything is done i import it into anki
My method is better than processing each card you decide to add, which breaks your reading workflow and discourages you from adding more cards.
This is a good workflow. Definitely better than mine. However, I don’t think it will work well for cloze cards.

what do you mean rarely have time for importing? going to anki import file it takes maybe 30 secs?
