Notes

Critic of Main Page's topics

"Main Page"'s topics are (at the moment):

• "Sciences".

Not all information in Wikipedia is science.

• Mathematical and Natural Sciences

Mathematics is commonly defined as the study of patterns of structure, change, and space; more informally, one might say it is the study of 'figures and numbers'.

...

What common between Mathematic and Natural Sciences?

• Applied Arts and Sciences

What does it mean Applied here?

• Social Sciences and Philosophy

Philosophy is the critical study of the most fundamental questions that humankind has been able to ask.

The social sciences comprise the scientific study of the human aspects of the world.

What common?

• Culture and Fine Arts

It is OK. I see, it is about something nice and good.

About this category scheme

Encyclopedia is a written compendium of human knowledge. All main topics are called "Knowledge about ....". We list such general subjects as beauty (philosophy) and landform (geology). So, rather than just sticking with Philosophy, we will have being, goodness, knowledge, and a number of other basic topics studied by philosophy.

I've divided all knowledge into four topics:

• Knowledge about Humans.

All that concerns humans directly. From Language, Good to Politics.

• Knowledge about Nature.

The natural world, especially in its essential form, untainted by human influence. From Big Bang, Life, Physics to galaxy. (Except anything related to Humans)

• Knowledge about Technology.

In another words, Techlnology is nature altered by Humans. From invention and usage of fire, wheel, axe to Internet, Electricity, Nuclear reactor, Spacecraft.

• General and Abstract Knowledge.

Anything that relates to humans, nature and technology.
