The case is about an attempt to form a charity to research inventing a new alphabet for writing English which would have 40 characters and be easier to use. The judge concluded that increasing knowledge is not the same as education, which is entirely correct. The case is about original research, it has nothing to do with encyclopaedias and does not apply to them.
Hopefully a lawyer will think the same. It's evident any attempt to make a UK chapter charitable will likely need one.
