You can build something like this on Skynet. Links on Skynet (called skylinks) can point to hashes of data (similar to IPFS)or can point to a pubkey. If the data points to a pubkey, it can be tweaked repeatedly and people with the old links will see the new data.
You can also point to full webapps. So for example you could have a pubkey point to a webapp that then loads the database from a list of moderators who update the data under their pubkeys to point to the latest version of scihub. Then you can even have different moderators curate articles of different subjects, and the webapp can combine everything together.
All the data is stored on Sia, which is a decentralized cloud storage platform. Skynet allows anyone to upload or download data from Sia directly from the web, no need for extensions or custom software. The Sia network handles what IPFS calls "seeding", so contributors don't need to worry about leaving their machines on.
