Well, you can't make a good taxonomical index without at least getting the key words recognized correctly. Unless you're going to hand enter those key words, then you really should start with a good OCR.

In my experience, it's helpful to have more than just the subject of the article. If there is a particular kind of power supply (bipolar, unipolar, switching, linear) or a different kind of output (balanced, unbalanced) or a different kind of gain stage (discrete transistor, op-amp, special-purpose integrated circuit), then you will benefit later if you can search for all of these minor details.

For an example of the ways that I think are important to categorize a series of electronics circuit articles, see the following:

The PDF is a hand-made taxonomical index to about three decades of articles written by Nelson Pass. It goes deeper than the titles of the articles, but obviously doesn't provide a full text search.
