On the other hand, a wiki with a LINK to (or perhaps a COPY of) every
sequence in OEIS would be great.

Then people COULD add unedited comments, suggested new terms,
conjectures, or whatnot, if they wanted.


Me:  this is a REALLY BAD idea too.
We would end up with two copies of every sequence,
one Wiki one and one on the OEIS site,
and no one would ever know which
one was being quoted.
