Wow, that's quite visionary. By the way, our startup is about doing exactly this: https://arbital.com/p/Arbital/

We are starting with mathematics, but plan to expand to all other topics as well. If you are interested in contributing, join our slack channel or newsletter (https://arbital.com/newsletter/). We are planning to roll out small projects soon, which people can contribute to.

Interesting. How does arbital see itself in relation to Wikipedia's math pages? It seems like you are trying to make it more accessible, like the Wikipedia simplified English descriptions
