Just off of the top of my head... * Those pages have to be stored somewhere. They're all MB of space and they make DB tables longer and introduce other issues and generally clog up the rest of the site * Those pages all have to be moderated (and who will moderate irrelevant pages), all open wikipedia to charges of copyright infringement, slander/liable and other issues * Those pages distract from actual, useful pages. At best they actually distract from it, at worse they will actively contradict it * It encourages people to edit wikipedia for the wrong reasons. We already have issues with politicians and CEOs editing wikipedia for personal gain. * Privacy. I am not notable. There should not be an article about me, even though I have published research. The last thing I want is an article about me I then have to either correct or leave incorrect, that pops up when you google me. I have more than enough social media already thanks, the last thing I want is an "account" where I am not even in charge of what it says... * Lack of sources. If you let in 1000 small articles, you have to allow articles with few to no sources. If you do that, you will get important or popular articles being created also with no sources. Banning non-noteworthy articles also bans un-sourced articles.
