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 with EveryCRT
