Talk:Universal Debating Project
Janos,
Thank you for your response. Yes, this is "..a fascinating proposal." I like your diagram too and of course, the key subjects there can be sub-divided further (eg. Economics...Binary Economics, Behavioural Economics, Environmental Economics,et al). Time allowing I hope to expand the concept of the UDP.

This is just a courtesy visit 18 months on. I find it frustrating that in spite of all the intellectual output there is no awareness of the need for presenting information in a classified system: why have a list of hundreds of items instead of a few (not too few, say 12) categories with 12 sub-categories each and (if needed) 12, sub-sub categories--- 1728 into 12. We could still have a search function in case we want to find one specific item of information. JA
This is a fascinating proposal. Ambitious, as you say, but badly needed in view of the enormous amount of information filling cyberspace. Crafting a manageable but sufficient number of categories to contain increasingly specific knowledge items is part of the job.
I have been gestating a twelve division knowledge base with not much success on my own:
