I know citing definitions only gets you so far, but the first definition Google provides for encyclopedic is "comprehensive in terms of information."

  If the content starts to touch topics which are too niche, there is a risk that no-one will be able to verify it and the information will become unreliable.

    Where would be a good place to actually store that niche knowledge? I agree that it doesn't really belong on Wikipedia... But it could still be valuable. Maybe even more valuable than "normal" content because if it's lost it's lost for good.

      Maybe Wikidata if the knowledge can be expressed in a somewhat structured way? They don't have the deletion as Wikipedia does, AFAIK.

      In an ideal world, on the free decentralized web of interconnected webpages indexed by search engines and archived in several places for posterity. In the current state, I suppose something like Wikia but for anything? It definitely deserves some place.

      Amazingly I got useful information on an angelfire website the other day... hope things like that stay around forever.

      wikia.com? Your own wiki? Talk pages on Wikipedia?
