 * Posts are mostly stored across two table in the db wp_posts and wp_postmeta but
   their is related content in wp_comments, wp_term_relationships etc… + a single
   WP post can have multiple entries per post in the posts tables as its how wp 
   supports revisions.

    [http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description](http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description)
 * Hacking into the db is probably a bad idea. If you want people to contribute 
   to your content you’d be better off looking at letting them do it thought the
   wordpress ui and using the build in user roles.
 * Or install a wiki like Media Wiki. like the way wp.org use it for codex.wordpress.
   org
 * Finally if you really do want to press on building your own ui I’d use the json,
   or xmlrc api wordpress provides and used for thinks like the ios app, it would
   be a lot safer than poking the db especially if your not already familiar how
   WP’s db structure and how WP uses it.
