There may already be online troubleshooting wizards for a domain (e.g.
medicare), and people have to memorize the domain names of these
domain-specific troubleshooting wizards. What I propose is a single,
universal entry point for all your troubles in life --
WikiTroubleshooting.org, so that you don't need to memorize individual
sites like WebMD. It's like with Wikipedia -- if you want to learn
about something, you just go to a single website: wikipedia.org,
without learning about domain-specific knowledgebase websites.
