Well, it depends on what you mean by "The Encyclopedia". We can take the ED article as a hypothetical. Let's suppose ED is/will be notable-- what would be best for encyclopedia-- to cover it or to exclude it.
This is a red herring. If ED were notable outside its own mind, it would have an article with good sourcing.
Okay, I 100% agree. It wasn't so long ago that it was seriously suggested ED wouldn't have an article even if it WAS notable and DID haven't good sourcing. That in the light of day, even asking the question seems like a red herring is actually a very good sign. There shouldn't be a question about how we'd handle ED if, somehow, it were notable-- we'd handle it by writing a well-sourced article about it.
