hello
I've long wished there were a genealogical database of European monarchs
etc, where for instance Charlemagne exists as an entry with his wives
listed in one column, his sons in another, his daughters in another, his
known mistresses in another and his mother and father in two more.
as it grew (wikistyle) you could then see things like: all male descendants
of Charlemagne (or whoever) or choose to display the information in all
sorts of ways.
but I don't know a) how to do it or b) if wikipedia is the right place for
it
any thoughts?

Yes, that is a good idea. However, it should not be on Wikipedia,
according to [[Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not]]. Maybe if some big
Wikimedia person (like Jimbo, maybe) sees this a consideration for a
project may be started.
