I like this idea as a repository of knowledge. Oral
history is a remarkable
tool, when used correctly, as it personalizes major events and provides
insights into events that would not otherwise be available to researchers.
Furthermore, we live in one of the most exciting periods in history, with
outstanding events that need recording before the people who witnessed them
are no longer around to tell their story.
I'm still not convinced this should be separate from the Wikipeople/Wikimorial
idea (oral histories can be sub-pages off of articles on the individuals giving
the history), but as the official Wikimedia cybersquater, I went ahead and
registered
wikimemory.org and hereby give that domain to the foundation (it's
already in the foundation's GoDaddy account so physical transfer is already
complete).
I see that
wikimemory.com has already been registered by Marshall Poe. Good.
