[openbiblio-dev] Simplest possible (useful) way to enrich data like the British Libraries

I've just forwarded Jonathan's email about improvements to bibliographica [1]

At this point it is worth asking: what is the simplest possible way to
enable general users to enrich data like the BL's? (And bearing in
mind the link don't copy if possible principle put forward in [2]).

My 2 cents:

* tagging - very easy to do in non-intrusive way
* flagging (i.e. simple tags plus flags for errors -- is this better
than users correcting directly?)
