Starting a Pure Data Wiki (Database/Examples Collection)

@whale-av Hiya, that's my wiki. The ordering and selection of the links is fairly haphazard as I'm not actively using Pd currently and haven't taken the time to order all the links into a more appropriate set of subheadings. I'm a big proponent of putting everything on one page (until a page gets incredibly long, though there are still exceptions to this rule on my wiki). I'll eventually get around to nicking the links from any other wiki I find Happy for the links to be nabbed from my wiki and used elsewhere.

Yes, I believe there is a need for a real, neat, fully functioning Pure Data Wiki. Such a wiki could serve as a valuable resource for Pure Data users of all levels of experience. It could provide a central location for collecting and sharing patches, examples, tutorials, and other resources. It could also be used to document best practices, troubleshooting tips, and other useful information.
I believe that there would be a lot of interest in contributing to a Pure Data wiki. There are many talented Pure Data users who would be willing to share their knowledge and expertise. A wiki would make it easy for them to do so.
I also believe that a Pure Data wiki would be a useful resource for the Pure Data community. It would make it easier for users to find the information, including the business information API they need, and it would help to promote the adoption of Pure Data.

I think I'm going to take it down soon, but for a work/training project I made a prototype database thing for pd that documents external objects w/brief descriptions about what they do, tags, and long description/documentation. Users could edit descriptions, docs, and tags of objects and libraries as well as search object or libraries by name, tag, or author.
