Wikipedia:Wikipedia in brief: Difference between revisions

:* ''[[Wikipedia:Notability|Notable]]:'' A view is generally considered notable if it is potentially information of value or interest in some way to a significant number of people, or to some perspective, or its omission would leave a significant gap in historical human knowledge of a subject. Even minority, controversial and discredited views are often notable. Often it is valuable to see how people thought, or competing views of the time. By contrast many [[fringe]] views are not notable by this definition, because they are not ''sufficiently'' significant or had little or minor impact in their field as a whole.

:* ''[[Wikipedia:Verifiability|Verifiable]]:'' Information must be objectively verifiable, including being [[Wikipedia:cite your sources|cited]] from a credible source.

 

For information to be included in Wikipedia, it should at a minimum be both ''notable'' and ''verifiable''.
