Abstract: This article argues that a cooperatively-built, well-organized, \nshared knowledge base is a new – and, from certain viewpoints, optimal – \nkind of support (refining and integrating other kinds of supports) for three \ncomplementary tasks: learning about living entities (and how to identify them), \nsupporting their identification, and sharing knowledge about them. This article \ngives the ideas behind our prototype, and argues that knowledge providers \ncan be not solely specialists, but also amateurs. In essence, for these three \ntasks, it argues for the (re-)use of much more semantically organized and \ninterconnected versions of semantic wikis or scratchpads.
