I was searching the net for something like a wiki database, just like wikipedia but instead stores structured content, editable by users. What I was looking for was an online database accessible by everyone where people can design the schema and data with proper versioning of both schema and data. I couldn’t find any such site. I am not sure if it is my search skills or if there really is no wiki database as of now. Does anyone out there know anything like this?
I think there is a great potential for something like this. A possible example will be a website with a GUI for querying a MySQL DB where any website visitor can create DB objects and populate data.
UPDATE: I had registered the domain wikidatabase.org to get started on a tool but I didn’t find enough time yet. If anyone is interested in spending some time and coding on this, please let me know at wikidatabase.org
This might be like what you’re looking for: dbpedia.org. They’re working on extracting data from Wikipedia, and encoding it in a structured format using RDF, so that it can be queried using SPARQL.
Linkeddata.org has a big list of RDF data sets.
