Organisation of Knowledge for the Benefit of Mankind

If all knowledge is born from people working on existing knowledge, there should be some source which can tell us at least the broad aspects of everything. It may not be possible for one individual to develop skills in all the areas.However, broad knowledge of all different heads /categories / aspects of knowledge should not be very remote.
Firstly, a list of different aspects of knowledge A to Z needs to be created. This may need to be further updated on a regular basis.
Secondly, the sources where the relevant knowledge can be found may be linked to this list. Encyclopedia may give relevant help.
The third step could be how to reach these sources.
It appears that presently various sources are available but they may not be properly classified or grouped. Internet has exploded knowledge however easy (user friendly) "What is where?" list is not available. One person surely cannot be expected to carry out such a voluminous time consuming task. However some effective concerted steps taken by a group can help complete the task at hand in a reasonable time frame.

If some expert on scheduling of tasks can give his guidance on PERT and CPM to be applied and some leader can coordinate the activities it should be possible to give fair justice to the work. Some service providers can help by making available the web space and the required software support for linking. This is just a concept based on the need to organise knowledge and should help humanity in the long run.Proper channelising of resources and direction to this work can complete the work efficiently.

Here are some aspects which can be further elaborated/ expanded.

1.0 Different subjects of study and their relevance to mankind: science,arts commerce,sociology,
medicine ,Eng., politics , human behaviour etc. etc. the list shall be very very big.

2.0 How worldly aspects are controlled? Nature of Almighty.

3.0 Different categories of species and different characteristics of human beings.

4.0 All different known materials in the world with classification in different types/categories.

5.0 List of various languages and their evolution.

6.0 Various ways of communication.

It is understood that the work involved is gigantic .However somebody has to make a start.

Your comments are not only welcome but also essential for proper direction to this work
and contribution via new ideas.
