I agree with you: github is not suitable for this.
When I created this github repo, it was because stack overflow wasn't suitable for this. Then I created a website (the now defunkt resrc.io) which could pull these kind of lists from github, parse the links, have them tagged in a database, parse the link content, make it searchable, etc.
It still wasn't suitable. And I'm still looking for a suitable way of curating such lists, be it on github or anywhere else.
