&gt; if the pages are up to the standard there is no reason for not being included.<p>Pages are not free, they come with a maintenance cost. If  everything (or even a significant percentage of everything) was allowed most of it would grow to be low quality. Which would make it less useful, which would make less people use&#x2F;improve it, which leads to death spiral.<p>We already have a something with &quot;everything&quot; it&#x27;s called the Internet.  Wikipedia is (and should be) a limited subset of that.<p>I do think their notability requirements are maybe too high and vague.  But, I don&#x27;t have a better alternative.
