- Build professional academic wikis for biological knowledge curation (such as, wiki-based gene annotation system).
- Establish next-generation resources, viz., reference sequence wikis for specific species.
- Measure users' contributions, give explicit authorship and provide a standard practice to reward community-curated efforts in biological knowledge wikis (bio-wikis).
- Provide a central archive of quantitative contributions and citations in different bio-wikis.
- Develop wiki extensions to facilitate biological content creation and editing, data visualization, exchange and sharing.
