I wish MD was more like a wiki

Why discuss things over and over to have the words lost in cyberspace?
Why not make contributions to a more organized document?
Have some way to convert debate to narrative?
I realize it isn't possible, but it would be interesting.

Hi Zeezrom,
I operate
http://www.mormonstudies.com and would LOVE to host this type of content. I'm very *slowly* adding content to the site but things like my job and family keep me pretty occupied! Anyone who would like to put something together please let me know.

Does someone want to try and host a Lucy-Emma wiki?

I like Zeezrom's idea but it is very ambitious. I think the first step is to create a Mormon index. Essentially it would be a place where you could go to access journal articles/books, etc. about any topic related to Mormonism.
For example, one of the topics could be temple changes. It would then have a list with links to all the relevant sources in the: (a) standard works, (b) statements by prophets, (c) journal articles (dialogue, sunstone, journal of Mormon history, BYU studies, etc.) and (d) websites (FAIR, FARMS, Mormonthink, etc.). Anyone who wanted to study this topic would instantly know where to go (and many of the materials are free on the Internet).
As time passes, hopefully it would morph into what Zeezrom envisions.
