I like the idea. I'd append yet another section for footprint
generators.

See 
http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:tasks#website_and_documentation
if you want to edit the wiki yourself. There are explaining there
of what to do to gain access to the wiki and a link to the page
where you can learn dokuwiki syntax (it is not a bit hard but
still time consuming :)).

If you don't want to gain access, please let me know, and I'll add
your links myself.

BTW, there is a section in gschem FAQ on this topic:
http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:faq-gschem#is_there_a_symbol_wizard_in_gschem

Cheers,
