Forum:ExE articles: a radical solution

We are missing a lot of articles on Sbiis' latest googologisms. I'm here to propose a quick solution to the void:


 * We create a template that generalizes all the pages that we have on these numbers. This template would provide slots for the name of the number, its value in ExE, its etymology, a citation, and space for any additional comments.
 * With a lot of grunt work, we assemble a computer-readable table of all the names of the numbers and their values.
 * A bot generates all the articles from the table, using the template.

The template has the advantage that we can modify all the numbers' pages at once. In addition, it would be nice to have this table anyway, just because Sbiis' work is a "canonical" googology text and this is sort of a way of preserving the names in a raw format.

While I'm at it, I would like to question the value of the "approximations in other notations" tables. Do we need them on EVERY article? Why not just on the milestone numbers, like pentacthulhum?
