I think a wiki page in this case is a bad idea. There should
be a .py file included with SAGE, in which all these functions are defined
and carefully documented. They should be accessible by typing, e.g.,
sage: sloane.[tab]
at the keyboard. They should have examples in them, and get regularly
doctested. The function names should just be identical to the sequence
names.
Of course -- a wiki page could be generated from such a .py file.
