If anyone argues that Wikipedia is complete, point them at [[WP:MEA]].
The Missing Articles project has been set up to collects lists of topics
that are covered in other encyclopedias (and similar works).
I think WP contains articles on the majority of subjects in general
English-language encyclopedias, but compared to more specialized works
there are still loads of unwritten articles. There's even a list of
more than 13,000 topics in mathematics that have still to be written,
even though that is a field in which Wikipedia is said to be strong (I
think)...
