[edit]Wikipedia is a project that should prioritize quality as an encyclopedia. Reliable sources based on WP:VERIFY (verifiability principle) are crucial. While WP:NPOV and Good Faith Collaboration are foundational, WP:STYLE and other guidelines (WP:GUIDES) are best-effort obligations.
- Even short articles or single-source articles have value if they
- Meet verifiability standards (WP:VERIFY)
- Have highly reliable sources like AFI/BFI(film-related) or official statistics
- Are supported by secondary sources, not just primary sources
- Effective editing methods
- Appropriate review through NPP (New Page Patrol)
- Article preservation through draft conversion and redirects
- Proper use of WP:RS (Reliable Sources)
- The Articles for Deletion (AfD) process yields constructive results through
- Quality improvements via PROD (Proposed deletion) and WP:DINC (Deletion Improves Wikipedia)
- Clear evaluations based on WP:GNG (General Notability Guideline) and WP:SNG (Subject-specific Notability Guidelines)
- Constructive discussions through votes (not mere polling, but policy-based judgments)
This systematic approach enhances Wikipedia's reliability as an encyclopedia.
