[Wikipedia-l] Always make articles as complete as possible

[Krzysztof P. Jasiutowicz]

 From [[Wikipedia:Always make articles as complete as possible]]

--------------------------------------------------------------------
One of Wikipedia's [[wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|rules to consider]]:

Whenever you write a page, always make it as complete and comprehensive as
possible.
<br>Don't create an article until it is in form ready for publication.  If you feel that your article is seriously incomplete and you are urged to publish it please insert boilerplate text from [[Wikipedia:Stub]] into the article.

This rule is meant to supersede [[Wikipedia:Always leave something undone|
"Always leave something undone" rule]] that is regarded obsolete.

This rule is open for debate.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Articles happen to be reviewed almost instantaneously (as they appear on RC)
or they can stay unreviewed with embarrassing errors for months (years?).

Cooperation and collective authorship that are behind the 
"Always leave something undone" rule were great in the old days when there
were 50-100 edits daily not 3000+.

There's no guarantee that a proportion of articles slip form the RC and
plunge into the Wikipedia's great information soup.

This is an observation from perusing the ancient pages list.

Kpjas.
