The following is a concept by User:TheDJ. Enhancing, commenting, creating mockups and forking is encouraged !

Story builder. A curator could basically build a story using his own words, links to wikipedia, wikisource, commons. include graphs and animatoins etc, to create a "long read" about a topic. Think dynamic, revisable, updatable New York Times quality long reads. But then with wiki knowledge. It would be a brilliant curated addition, that fits in with the learning and teaching concept. A Wikipedia article can be way too complex or comprehensive to be the best way to communicate certain concepts. By being able to build a story, it might be much easier to pull someone into a path of exploration.


 * stories would be owned
 * stories would allow for others to make suggestions for improvements
 * a story can be transferred to another owner
 * a story will automatically be abandoned if owner stops being active ?
