Matt,
I think people politely declined to criticize your proposal in the
knowledge that it was absolutely sure to fail, meaning vocal opposition was
not required. But I can understand your frustration at the lack of
response, so I'll briefly provide you with mine. The "WikiTribute" idea
firstly fails to meld with educational purpose of the "sum of all human
knowledge" mission. Secondly, the system you describe for managing it is
utterly unworkable in a non-profit, volunteer driven wiki setting. Finally,
online repositories for obituaries already exist. These are by no means the
only weaknesses of the WikiTribute idea, but they would seem to be fatal.
