Ron Paul’s new book Liberty Defined, now super high on the NYT Bestseller list, might end up as the most widely read liberty book of our age. But there’s a problem. It has no index. What do you think of crowd sourcing one. We can all pitch in to make one. And the code is so easy that it is a great way for you to start wikiing if you haven’t yet. I’ve started a page and made a few entries to show what I mean.

This sounds like a very interesting plan. Initial note: the wiki page has a typo: “This page is designed to *provided* for one.”
And it’s fixed now, since it is so incredibly easy to edit a wiki page. *hint-hint-nudge-nudge*
fix it Ethan! just kidding
Great idea. I don’t think I can help though, I Kindle. (Could this be the first use of that noun as a verb, a la Google?)
Eh, I am already in the middle of the book. Will have to start over…
Great Idea!
are we just adding page numbers to keywords we choose?
Hey Jeffrey!
You may want to check out what the programming wizard over at the Daily Paul came up with.
Libertydefined.org The Guy goes by the username of Joη and has done some pretty neat things with scripts and I am pretty sure he has help Mr. Nystrom out some too.
Not exactly what you wanted, but its more like a wiki about every topic.
From the books of his I have, it seems Paul never includes an index or footnotes. This promted me to start (although I have not finished) providing my own footnotes to his “Gold, Peace, and Prosperity.” So far, I’ve only added footnotes to chapters 1-4 and 8.
