I agree with this generally, though perhaps I'd be

I certainly think we could afford a little more space to a non-major

That'd be cool. Let's think - what *is* the harm in boundless
fancruft? There must be harm, or we would allow it. Perhaps it is
simply that boundless fancruft strays too far from our mission, which
is to produce an encyclopaedia that is not just a random collection of
information.
Someone help me out here - we all know that it's wrong to have 600
pages describing every fight ever shown in any Pokémon episode. But
why?
