Dear Christian-Emil,
My first suggestion is to replace:
" thesauri, authority lists, documents and instances of knowledge
organizing systems that define terminology or conceptual systems for
consistent use."
by
" thesauri, authority lists, instances of knowledge organizing systems and
documents that define terminology or conceptual systems for consistent use."
Justification:
It seem that the expression "that define terminology or conceptual
systems for consistent use" was a restriction specific to the "document"
scope because the others elements ( encyclopaedia, thesauri,
authority lists and also KOS ), by definition, are linked with the
terminology or conceptual system idea.
The second suggestion is to replace the term “encyclopaedia” by
“encyclopedia”.
Justification:
According Google Books Ngram Viewer (link below), since the 1900s, the
use of the term “encyclopedia” is more common than “encyclopaedia”.
