Is there any possibility Rich or anyone else could create another,

MediaWiki on ibiblio for general use by the permaculture community?

This would be a general permaculture database with subsets to include guilds,
plant relationships,
definition of permaculture, etc.

What would it cost? Who would be willing to administer it?

I don't really see the need for another wiki, the current one would be fine to include the material you mention.

The current wiki is suffering from lack of contributors and a lot of vandalism. I've had to turn off anonymous contributions and even that has not stopped the amount of spam
http://www.permaculture.info/index.php/Special:Recentchanges
with about five per day.

What is really needed is a way to encourage more people to contribute, it is certainly worth mentioning on the permaculture list.
