Why another CRT database site?
- We want to be maximally open and agile to new data. Hence the wiki format.
- For me personally, I wanted to know how to make a MediaWiki site that puts schema-fied data first, rather than "loose" data like you find scattered on e.g. Wikipedia
- Want to cover worldwide, not have North America bias
- Want to integrate natively with EveryCRT
Feature list
- CRT model data capture
- Expressive format for inputs, outputs, multiple power voltages, etc.
- See data format in CRT Model form/template
- Search page

- Document upload (for manuals, brochures, etc.)
- Data model applies them to multiple CRT models at once (if necessary)
- Supports storing files on wiki as well as e.g. archive.org
