Just a random question but is there some kind of limit to how much info can be included in a Wikipedia page and/or topic?
I know that anyone can try and add info to Wikipedia but it can also include a kind of public review by others who may object to the validity of the information being added by some random person.
That said, I UNDERSTAND that there is some review/editing process that can limit what is added to Wikipedia but is there also some kind of limit to quantity?
Why is there not more info on some/most/or all of the pages? As long as the information is legit and no one can prove the information about a particular subject is not legit (has legit sources), why is there not more information on Wikipedia? Do they have some kind of limit on a particular subject because of data space on their website?
Wikipedia, I get, is kind of like an online encyclopedia but does that also mean they try to limit the amount of information that can be added to a particular subject page, even if the information is legit?
I don't think there is a page on Wikipedia that couldn't contain more information about the said subject than what you find there. Unless they have some kind of algorithm limiting the amount of data on their website due to space issues (which I understand can be an issue online), change my mind.
