My own update of the Encyclopedia

I've been working on my own update of the Trek Encyclopedia for... god, the last three and a half years. It's been a massive project and life has gotten in the way from time to time.

Working from and expanding on the Okuda's masterpiece, and adding entries for DS9 season 7, Voyager seasons 5-7, Enterprise, and Nemesis, I'm now in the process of a final copyedit and adding images (creating new illustrations as needed). "A" through "G" and some of the Appendices are done; I'm working on "H" right now.

I've come up of a list of items to be added to the Encyclopedia for the 1.0 timeline from Trek XI (http://trekbbs.com/showthread.php?t=91749&page=2 - post #38). My questions to you are:
- Did I miss anything? and
- Should Trek reality 2.0 have its own separate Encyclopedia with some amount of cross-referencing?

I don't mean for a separate publication to signify a lack of canon or of respect. Instead, Trek XI seems like such a clean break from the universe we know and love. I'd ultimately have the definitive guide to the reality of the first five series and ten movies, and a separate work for the exciting nu-worlds and nu-civilizations. Of course, that assumes a Trek XII and beyond.

Anyway, I'm open to suggestions. And if you want to see what I've developed so far, let me know.
 
Nothing against all your work, but I suspect that with the formation of "Memory Alpha" the desire to have an updated Encyclopedia has diminished somewhat.

Personally, I'm uselessly hoping and waiting for an updated chronology, containing everything from the Prime Universe.
