Submissions of links is a very good way of making information available to others.
Yes. One of the reasons for a recent complete reorganisation of the glossary was to make it easier for sites to link directly to a term in the glossary. Each term is defined on a separate page. To link to a term simply find the page in the glossary and link to it.
