Start fresh, but make one index note that links to the ten imported notes you actually use. Search finds the other 2,990 when you need them.

Everything is in one folder called Imported. Do I sort it now, or start fresh and pull things in as I need them?

Tags only. I never remember which folder something is in, but I always remember what it was about.
