There are various issues which affect whether information should be accepted into an article, and for how long. There are several restrictions which affect what forms of information are considered proper within various articles. Also, some topics are acceptable mainly in subpages, rather than in a main article, to prevent undue weight in coverage of the topic, such as recent charges of corruption, or fringe theories which conflict with well-known facts about a subject.
