Structuring of content is an interesting question. Sometimes small
stubs are better than a list, as it is easier to link to separate
articles than to items in a list, especially if there is no real
unifying structure for the list. Sometimes it takes a while to work
out what list, or summary article, something should be part of, but if
done well, that can work well.

But sometimes separate articles is the way to go. Even if the
individual articles are unlikely to be much more than a GA-level
article at best, the separate articles approach has several
advantages, even if some content gets duplicated across several
articles.
