We should aspire to become an encyclopedia of law. Seriously, the great thing about Wikipedia is that Wikipedia can be more than a general encyclopedia. Wikipedia can replace specialized enyclopedias like encyclopedias of philosophy and encyclopedias of law (if the latter even exist yet).
Mmmm, but you'd have to be a right nong to use it as more than a casual reference. A legal encyclopaedia that anyone can edit?
That's just our development pattern. In the end we will have stable versions that are verified accurate.
