Perhaps this is off-topic, but I wanted to say it for a long time. The
more time passes, the more I wonder if people who work on Wikipedia have
ever seen an encyclopedia. On Wikipedia, dictionary definitions and
image galleries are forbidden, and stubs are frowned upon. Yet every
encyclopedia I have ever seen has dictionary definitions, and image
galleries, and stubs-a-plenty.
I guess that conclusion is that we are doing something wrong.
