I love research, and I feel like having all of the sources in one place would save someone writing a paper a lot of searching. Even if it never becomes a widely used website, I feel like it could just be a project I could work on to keep myself busy. Then again, you could always just use the reference section of Wikipedia. Should I do it, or should I devote my time to something else?

    Wikipedia already has a large number of people going to it. Why don’t you do all that work and add it directly to Wikipedia?
