I like the idea of combining Encylopedia with structured data to enable

things are imaginable there when the culture of conveying the needed
individual and social skills are done well. Tech is only tool to these
processes. Tools are important, but not the purpose when it comes to
disseminate knowledge.

Actually, Wikidata itself is an excellent positive example of community
involvement. All things, including technical innovations, are discussed
at the village pump (there, it is called Project Chat); for those who
are less active in some areas there are weekly digests covering all the
activities; if there is a technical problem help comes within minutes.
It is of course much easier for a smaller scale project, but the
problems in Wikipedia from Wikidata come, I believe, not from negligence
or from insufficient attention to the community, but from bad
communication.
