Having all those sites you mention on one site may sound good to you but it is never going to happen.

First there are several individuals putting time into collecting information and maintaining their site. Would you expect that they would all continue to do this if it’s on someone else’s site?

Also, what happens if the site goes down as often happens on the Internet? That would mean that all information is cut off. With it on more than one site much would still be available even if one source goes down for a while.

Also, this could get expensive and also require a lot of knowledge of one person to maintain it all. It could take several hours of time a week for someone to do it on a volunteer basis. Much more than the individuals managing separate sites do now.

The present set of systems is working well. It might have some quirks and imperfections but so would a new system that might take months or years to develop

As someone said before “are you volunteering to do it?” If so, you’d better start soon if you want it done in your remaining lifetime and don’t plan on doing much else with your spare time.
