Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and the fact that you think it could or should be something else doesn't change that.

Wikipedia doesn't claim that there is a universal objective definition for "notability". "Notability" is a term of art on Wikipedia. You can't win this argument with a dictionary.

There may be nothing in the world a true Wikipedian would rather do than explain the project's definition of a word like "Notability", at ponderous, relentless, unceasing length. So ignorance is no excuse! There's more documentation for this concept than there is for Postgres. RTFM, friend.

If you don't like Wikipedia's rules or think it could be something more, you are welcome to fork it.
