At or near a maximum, this site could fulfill the needs now served by the NCTM research handbook. There are a lot of possibilities in between. For now the site is mostly people pages and pages describing journal articles, but I plan on adding topic reviews and summaries which can then be linked to people and the articles they've written.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">;Why not just contribute to Wikipedia/Scholarpedia/open access journals?</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">: Wikipedia is wonderful &amp;mdash; it would get consideration from me as the crowing achievement of the internet age thus far &amp;mdash; but for what I'm doing here it's (a) not specialized enough and (b) subject to too much external control.
