An encyclopedia is an exposition, a knowledge book, of mankind's experience on this planet. All subjects are by definition
required.
All *encyclopedic* subjects. What I ate for lunch is also part of mankind's experience on this planet, but it should not be recorded in Wikipedia.
What you ate for lunch is of little interest to anyone except maybe your health care provider, and then not much at that. But what 50,000,000 people ate for lunch would be very encyclopedic.
Are you proposing an article listing the specific lunch details of 50,000,000 individuals?
Many subjects are simply too trivial to be listed in an encylopedia.
