About DimensionsCosmos
What this site is
An online reading library for classical Chinese literature: primary texts are organised by volume and chapter, kept in their original form with missing chapters or characters explicitly marked and never filled in, browsable with full-text search. The site only irrigates: it lays the source text and its provenance out clearly, and lets each reader's own way of reading grow.

Sources and licensing
- Base texts come mainly from Chinese Wikisource (CC BY-SA 4.0) and other openly licensed sources, cleaned of wiki markup, footnotes and template residue.
- Where a base text has missing chapters, missing characters (marked □) or abnormal length, the page says so explicitly. Nothing is filled in, so the original is never blurred.
- Redistribution of the base texts must follow their original licences (attribution — share alike).
Where AI content stops
- This site does not use a language model to generate commentary or recommendations; what the pages show is the source text and notes on its base edition.
- Where the base edition lacks chapters or characters, or shows an abnormal length, the page says so plainly — nothing is filled in, and none of it replaces the classics or the research literature.
- Should any model-generated content be introduced later, it will be marked prominently on the relevant pages and its scope described separately.
