The Brick Wiki looks like it's a specific Lego(R) brick wiki,

things like Meccano, Rokenbok as well..

I have never heard of Meccano or Rokenbok or those others you mentioned.
But if they're construction toys, they can be made for the computer! I know
nothing about setting up or working on a wikipedia, but if you want to/know
how to, go right ahead! I'd be happy to help where I can, but of course the
Real World keeps me rather busy now.

Meccano is best known as Erector in the states. Something the more
purile Uk-AFOLS find somewhat amusing. Although that may preclude the
A in AFOL.

Rokenbok is an amusing little system - it reminds me of the Fraggle
rock doozer constructions. You can build crazy construction sites,
with remote control vehicals, trains, cranes, lifts and roadways as
well as stuff that balls roll down. Have a look at www.rokenbok.com
and watch the vids.
