Wikis can be used, in principle, for any aspect of scholarly communication, as detailed in this comparison of wiki- and paper-based communication systems

Examples exist for all steps of the research cycle, except successful applications to major funders (see this overview for some attempts)

For technical reasons, publishing was historically a separate step, performed about once per iteration of the research cycle

Publishing every relevant bit of information immediately at each step is technically feasible now, and the remaining hurdles are cultural ones.

Publication lists (incl. supplementary materials and in principle direct links to the raw data)

built-in article-level metrics at bottom of page, author-level metrics via Special:Contributions, further aggregation possible (e.g. at the level of research projects, labs or thematic workgroups)
