I am looking forward to using Zotero for future

now we can start using Zotero and share the references easily by
exporting the individual's local reference database onto the any wiki
pages via Wikipedia citation format.

It has been speculated that Zotero will be mature and ready for real
collaborative citation. Hence I feel it might be a great way to start
your own citation database while contributing to the research community
via exporting them periodically.
The idea looks interesting, but it seems the plugin is firefox only (and
I use SeaMonkey) :(
In addition to the links provided, as always, I'll point out
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_in_academic_studies -
the page which has the potential to be as good as, well, Wikipedia (and
which, as far as I know, is the most comprehensive Wikipedia research
database, since early this year I spend lots of time trawling other
databases and updating this one). Do note it is Wikipedia only (not
wikis in general).
