Forum:Notability

'''I will state this upfront. Nothing that comes out of this thread is official policy. I am just testing the waters a little bit before forming an RFC.'''

There are two ways to determine what content should be included on the wiki. They are width and depth. We have already determined width through our fanon policies and c&c. Depth is essentially determining how far we go in detail. This is done through determining whether a subject is notable enough for an article. As indicated by the current fruit article and some of the previous rfd's we as a community need to decide just how deep into the Metroid series we want to go. How much detail? When is a subject not notable enough?

Now in order to create an RFC, I must already have an idea of what the policy is. Problem is, I'm not exactly sure yet.

Now what I am thinking is that we should find a way to determine the notability of an article. Also, what do we do with the information about subjects that don't merit articles? Obviously, we aren't creating a list like the List of cameos and crossovers, but in what articles should we put the information in about those subjects? If at all.

Play around with this idea as much as you want. Don't feel limited in how we answer this. I will create an official RFC based on suggestions. There is no time limit either. I'll keep suggestions open for a minimum of 2 weeks.

And please, keep things nice people and try to put your feelings aside. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 02:06, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
