a wiki “is a website that allows any user to change or add to the information it contains” accord to oxford’s dictionary.
What is it called when there is a dataset that is the same way? A lot of datasets have static and/or outdated info – like an NBA dataset might need to be updated every season with the new roster and people would be willing to submit changes to it just like they do to wikipedia.
Is there a name for this type of database/dataset and are there good examples of it? One I found is https://openlibrary.org/about but the features of that go pretty far beyond just a dataset. It doesn’t need a full api for instance.
