Abstract (maximum 500 words)

My main objective is to gather data, collecting all the stuff I always wanted to know. If someone like me wants to be a know-it-all (reference to Sheldon Cooper, character in a TV SitCom- The Big Bang Theory), I want to download only the relevant stuff. It neednt be the full details of each category, but the focus of the Category. It is not always possible for users to download 35 GB files, extract it & browse for the relevant stuff user is looking for. Instead, I could download files in the form of zipped folders/pdf's/docx's from the Wiki Repo, without downloading huge files for the intended reason, not including WikiTaxi here.
