Rich this is very interesting... I have been wondering about Wikis for a long time but had no idea what they could do.
Let me get this strait. You took your PFAF database, and used a custom module to use it to create a massive Wiki with an article for each plant, assigning categories to specified fields. The Wiki then

Once you create the wiki, is it then detached from the source data?

If so, does it (the wiki derived from the database) become a static dataset,
not allowing input?
Is new data entered into the database which then (cron job) refreshes and
updates the wiki?

Or can data in the wiki be edited, and if so is it locked within it or can
new data be extracted
and imported into the proper places in the database? Or can new data be
entered into the wiki and
the db simultaneously?

So where do users submit input, wiki or db?
