Why not? Encyclopaedias have lists and indices. This one's thematic.

Speaking from experience, I probably could have used this a year back, when
I wandered down the wrong state avenue from [[Dupont Circle]] in search of
the Oz Embassy, and wondered why we seemed to be sharing space with a pizza
restaurant. A positive but unusual move IMHO, but on inquiry not correct,
and I retraced my frozen steps.
