Sorry, but seeing your answers below, this project seems very amateurist, not 
really thought of.

Several billions people on earth. Hopefully, we are restricted to our 
planet...

Against, this amazingly vague and unclear.

This project needs real planning before doing anything else.
This is not the case upto now seeing the debate here.
BTW, why not using Wikiedu for the name, which was suggested by Anthere, 
I think.

And I thing we are undertaking too much at the same time.
We can't continue starting a new project every three months, especially seeing 
that recently started projects have still a lot of problems to solve.
Others people have described this very well in this thread.
It's urgent to wait before starting anything new.
