Forum:Media List Wiki

Wikia - creating communities

I'd like to propose a Press/Media List Wikia. There are several websites that charge for contact and statistical information for various different media sources, and providing this information for free would be relitivly easy. It would also be convienient, as the programs avalible are full of bugs and a pain in the ass to use. I'd start such a wikia myself, but frankly I dont have the time, and the only way I can think of starting it would be to copy and paste information from the service that I pay for. I'm not quite sure what the legal ramifications are for that sort of action either. Also it should be mentioned that Wikipedia has a good amount of press already on it, but doesnt quite focus on the relivant information that people in business, or perhaps (and this is why I think this idea would really be interesting) for independents who dont want to pay for a company to write and send out press releases for them, or other such related services.
