Hm, I believe you have actually convinced me. Can I summarize you as
follows:
we don't want people to build their own little hierarchies in this
encyclopedia and
have some links between them, but we want an interlinked web of relatively
self-contained small articles that give a sketch of the context necessary to
understand them and link to other articles that describe the context in a
general
way or parts of the context in more detail.

Correct?
