In the present borderless information society, we need a lot of fundamental linguistic tools as well as the standard reference resources to facilitate our daily communications across the languages and cultures for better understanding or smoothing the communications. Online collaborative works are efficiently conducted among expert groups via many existing services such as Sourceforge, Wiki or Weblog. However, in the process of multilingual resource development and intercultural communication we still need to fulfill the requirements in well-structured design of the database, and communication tools that provide necessary linkages between records of intention to particular assertions, and functions to realize selectional preference in case that there are more than one assertion. In this paper, we propose a new platform, called Knowledge Unifying Initiator (KUI). We conducted a study on multilingual medical text collaborative translation and the initiative in Asian WordNet development to evaluate our proposed platform.
