Articles on Wikipedia should actually cover the topic of the article. that's about it.

Description

An article's topical scope can be deduced from the title of the article. The content of the article can be greatly broadenedd, revised or altered, as long as it is beneficial to maintaing the scope of the article as actually covering the topic to which it pertains.

Examples

  • History of United States government. A topic that is self-evident in its notability; however, someone had to make a decision about the best way to actually approach this topic, and then someone had to actually write it. so this is one good example of the importance of the seemingly obvious fact that articles need to have content.
