Description:
"The Pfam database is a large collection of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs)."
Pfam family annotations are now pulled from Wikipedia, so users can contribute to Pfam by creating and editing Wikipedia entries (http://pfam.xfam.org/help#tabview=tab8).
Pfam is part of the ELIXIR infrastructure
