1) Is this really encyclopedic? If we list this, we should really list all major halachic works in the acharonim - too many.

2) The Hebrew terms are undefined - how many people reading wikipedia know what melicha is?

I can only comment that this book is considered one of the most important contemporary Halachic works in the Sephardi Jewish world. It is a "bestseller" and will probably be found in most sephardy synagogues, at least in Israel. This is of course due to the huge popularity of Rabbi Ovadia and the growing prominence if his Halachic school of thought compared to other Sephardi Halachic Traditions.
