That's a technically impressive feat, but sorta philosophically depressing. To me, that means that people aren't churning things up creatively on your wiki, or that you're quick to delink things you think might not be worthy of an article. I think in a game situation, like Runescape, you're not trying to define every single thing about the world, so it's maybe easier to see what things would never need an article and what things would. We couldn't, as a direct result of local policy, possibly get to the end of our WantedPages list. Ever. Anything — even garden-variety nouns like hat, car, book, cinematographer, horse, tardis:bank holiday, tardis:April, dog and hospital could get an article at our wiki. So before we even get to defining our obvious subject matter, like Qom VoTivig or Dalek or tardis:TARDIS, we've got to tackle basic things. In that way, we're pretty much exactly like Wikipedia. And their list never clears, even with tens of thousands of contributors.
