Summary

Say I wanted to look up what is the farthest away celestial object known to man is. I want real-time updated information (AJAX news articles, anyone?). Wikipedia could fit this bill perfectly (with an AJAX facelift to MediaWiki.) Intelligent information that can delete itself if incorrect, and add itself if needed. Sound bold. Yes, but it's possible.

Proposal

Make every article in the Wikipedia a self-updating AJAX application.
