First of all let me apologize for being so late. On topic: I've had only
marginal experiences with Wikipedia, but indeed positive ones. However I
was rather talking of a _parallel_ project, yes, but a somewhat more
integrate one.
I mean, from my POV (which others may not share), there "should" be a
link/button from each sequence to a Wiki or similar service for
user-supplied cmts. And there should be obvious links in the opposite
direction as well. Also, such a think could benefit IMHO from a rating
system so that really relevant cmts may be eventually brought to the
attention of the administrators and then make their way into the official
OEIS.
Just my 2 Eurocents,
Michele
