Chaos is a definite possibility...  ...and possibly somewhat 
desirable? Since the system does require a little bit of knowledge 
and effort to edit and create pages it will hopefully keep away 
vandals. And a complete record of previous edits is stored so anyone 
can always  restore prior versions of any page they liked better. The 
system has a certain amount of inertia that might keep chaos in check.

But, frankly I have no idea how it will evolve, but the concept 
looked cool and it wasn't going to cost me much to see what happens, 
so I figured I would put it out there and await the results.
