Yes, why not? Seriously? Much more useful than yet another article
on a minor Pokémon character.

Well yes. But I couldn't think where, either.
We should aspire to become an encyclopedia of law. Seriously, the
great thing about Wikipedia is that Wikipedia can be more than a

like encyclopedias of philosophy and encyclopedias of law (if the
latter even exist yet).
