Each wiki page in the namespace would be like an entry in your EndNote database.
Each of those pages would be a cite template filled in with appropriate values.
So you might write <ref>{{refs:Markowitz_2007|pages=1-10}}</ref>
Which is a lot more readable and compact than
<ref>{{Citation | last=Markowitz | first=Maury | author-link= | publication-date=20070918 | date= | year=2007 | title=A workable ref/note/cite system for wikipedia | periodical=J. wikipedia sci. | series= | publication-place=Cyberspace | place= | publisher=Foobar press | volume=1 | issue=1 | pages=1-1- | url= | issn= | doi= | oclc= | accessdate= }}.
The "template" on the refs page would have all that.

A references namespace has been suggested before. It's worth considering.
I think I may be missing the point here... what would this do?
