Yes but would people come. That's the other side of the ticket. PickWiki gets an incredibly low rate of change, much less than a change per week. There are hundreds of programmers on this list, who read responses every day.

Most of us have about 100 irons in the fire, and, we would all love to maintain/contribute, but, every time we start something, we realize, "Oh crap, someone has to administer that" Then once the poor soul administering it, gets busy, misses a few requests, etc... then the people contributing say, "Oh well, that must not be maintained anymore, or that guy/gal must be busy." I think we can create something, the real problem is, finding folks with enough time/motivation/drive, etc. to monitor/maintain/administer it. Contributing is the easy part. Organizing, documenting, and making it presentable is the hard part. On top of that most programmers/technicians, are sucky documenters, or would rather not document at all, OR, they assume that you are as smart as they are, or were when they wrote something. So I'm for it, and I could devote some time to it here and there... But, we have to overcome the challenges I mentioned. Thats my two cents.
