Why not have entries about everyone who has ever died? An encyclopedia with billions of pages would be fine because it's not paper, right?

How totally sweet wouldn't it be to have a COMPLETE list of every single person that was killed in the Holocaust? Their birth place, age, relatives.. maybe even what jobs they had had. Then we write articles about their relatives and why they werent killed in the Holocaust too.
Just think about it... 6 million people, confirmable detailed biographical information. If that happens WP can move mountains. The Holocaust deniers would look quite stupid (as if they don't already!) when everyone can copy 6 million biographies from WP!
Why stop there? There were an estimated 51 million fatalities in WWII. There is no need to limit this to a subset that represents less than 12% of these mostly innocent people. :-)
