CBE needs a lot of data research and editing. Usually every editor has their own Buddhism related topic(s) (English and Chinese speakers). Which he/she would gather as much material as possible. It is also opportunity to learn because before you can add it to encyclopedia you have to read it yourself as well. In that way you gain more knowledge and also contribute it to the others as well.
