What such a data base should be able to do:
 * 1) Everything a data base such as the ESTC can do.
 * 2) It should be possible to correct entries – as in Wikipedia.
 * 3) One should be able to set footnotes (it is of no use if I can state that the Queen Zarah (1705) was not written by Delarivier Manley if I do not have to state how I happen to know this.)
 * 4) One should be able to give the publishing histories of titles: What was the first edition, the sequence of succeeding editions, imitations etc.?
 * 5) One should be able to handle different sorts of materials – i.e. bibliographical and archival materials: I know of a person appearing in the book, know archival materials about this person and can set links between pages.
 * 6) One should be able to set links to outside pages – e.g. digitalisations.
 * 7) If you change something within the data base Wikipedia-articles should receive the new information automatically.
 * 8) The Google Books “review this book” option – we should be able to do this better and perhaps offer our service to Google Books
 * 9) ..the same offer could be an improved “advanced search” for Google.
 * 10) It would be desirable if the tool could be accessed easily to create statistics.
 * 11) There should be a special name space for research projects
