A good job well done, Wikipedia! Hopefully, you will not be too restrictive to the definition of the word "encyclopedia". Wikipedia can be more constructive in searching of new hypotheses and paradigms.

A secular taoist and promoter of wholistic secularism, I'm a Malaysian born chinese. As I'm in a kinda long term power monopoly, grievous hypocrisy, Orwellian, repressive (public and private) authoritarian environment, my online activities and my life are under surveillance and indirect oppression for more than 15 years. They abused my identity, stole my works, altered them and tried their best to repress me. So far, partly due to explosion of the information and my concentration in my researches and meditation, I've been posing myself as an dormantly eccentric type with my peccadillos. A lone-ranger, though not an anti-social, I'm not much involved in social life. Therefore, if there is anyone claiming him/herself as my friend, close relative or psychiatrist of mine, or any ill-intention articles, please ignore him/her/them.

There is a Tao Te Ching translation of mine at http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Daode_Jing_%28E._T._Tan%27s_Modern_Semantic_Translation_%29 as public domain. It is part of my "ultimate-concern" efforts in a quarter of a century. Hopefully, it could be of help to your life.
