A potential challenge with an EG wiki is to retain the 'the EG exists in the setting and you are reading it now' element. Most SF wikis in my experience are informational or fan sites that talk about their SF setting as a separate thing, while the EG talks about the OA setting as if it is part of it (and as the main vehicle for describing it).

I see it as being more like an "official" encyclopedia like Encyclopedia Britannica.
