This is really an important initiative!
Thanks for doing it.
I've tried to upload an image for the msd page ( http://wiki.puredata.info/en/msd ) but it sends me back an error when clicking on "upload file" in the toolbox, even if I'm already logged:

Am I doing something bad or is this a bug?
all the best

All good ideas, go ahead and add them! I think with pdpedia, we don't really need to discuss things too much or ask permission. If you have an idea, just do it, then we can start building it up. As it becomes well formed, then we can think about how to handle things from then.

It would be great if you made a reference article, for example.

Another hopefully extensible suggestion: larger libraries with a cohesive purpose should get a standard boilerplate message saying something like "Cyclone is a library for creating Max compatible patches. The closest pd-native equivalent of this object is [until]." or "GEM is a library for 3D graphics. For an overview of GEM, see <here>". The Cyclone example is sort of an extension of the "deprecated by" suggestion: in general, it would be nice to direct users to the "right object".

    Hey, this is really cool!  Great work!  I am committed to
    contributing as much as I can.

It would be great to take a really well known object and do a
    "reference article" to somewhat establish quality standards for
    the articles, and give lazy editors a template to work from when
    cleaning up the dumped text.

A "see also"/"related" section would be great, like [append]: see
    also: [list]. (maybe the categories take care of this)

    Also, a standard for writing "deprecated by" would be really
    helpful for old objects.

big cheers
