The Wikipedia Battle Over Really Short Articles

"Wikipedia is edited entirely by volunteers, who create articles and stubs, debate changes, and try to enforce the site’s many policies and guidelines. Subjects must meet certain “notability standards” to be included, but those standards vary depending on the topic. While in some areas, like the notability of academics, the criteria are quite clear, in others there is a lot of interpretive freedom and different editors make judgment calls about leaving or deleting articles basing on their gut feeling (which very well may have been the case of hemovanadin)."
