we just simply can't include every possible topic under the sun and still produce an accurate and reliable encyclopedia. Space is not the issue, quality is. The breadth has to stop somewhere, so we can get to depth.
I do not buy this argument.
It's quite clear that deleting articles about, say, individual Will and Grace episodes or minor Battlestar Galactica characters will not make those articles' editors go "oh well, you're right, guess Ill go and improve the New South Wales Railway Crossings articles". You're just turning those editors away.
