There are several interesting ideas in the Randomness draft which I 
think should be considered in a broader perspective. One of them is the 
idea of constructing a collaborative "Encyclopaedia":

This sounds very interesting. If we accept this, than IMHO it should be 
extended to all our work. That way, it can also include links between 
topics.

n.b.
I wonder: was this inspired by wikipedia?
