I think it depends on how you're going to access it — that is, what you will need it for. - Is your story a huge era-spanning saga? You may want to list things chronologically. - Is your story heavily reliant on dynasties, reigns of monarchs, or political administrations? Group them by leader. - Does it take place in a fairly short time and all your worldbuilding is about the past? Group the information by category (Magic, Religion, Food Culture, Marriage, etc.). - Does it focus on class distinctions and/or overcoming them? List by class. - Is it about kinds or schools of magic battling? Group things by magical school. And so on. Consider the structure and plot of your story and how you think you would need to reference your worldbuilding material — what's going to be relevant as you write. That will tell you how you want to organize your materials.
