Would you mind fleshing that out for me? I've just leafed through a couple special-purpose reference works I have around. I'm not seeing an obvious dividing line between topics. What would you leave out from special-purpose encyclopedias? If possible, I'd like a rule that applies to the Encyclopedia of Western Philosophy just as well as the Encyclopedia of Fashion Accessories.
It's also be great if you could ground your rule in some practical reason why it's bad.
I should have been more clear that that is my personal opinion. As I mentioned in another post, if the Wikipedia community decides, in fact, that everything included in any encyclopedia belongs in Wikipedia, then that's fine.
