Aren't you answering your own question, there? I mean, we have
Wiktionary because Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Ipso fatso, some
knowledge doesn't go in an encyclopedia.

There are a lot of things that don't go into Wikipedia, established by
precedent over these several years of its existence.

If you're interested in my _personal_ ideas on what those restrictions
should be, I'm willing to discuss that. But if you want to challenge
the idea that there could possibly be any limit to what belongs in
Wikipedia, I believe that horse has already left the barn.
