But I think that this thread goes around the same questions what we debated before my long hiatus from the site. Different readers are looking for different level of details. Some are interested only about very brief summary, some want more details and are willing to use few minutes to read an article and some (especially researches) could be interested about very trivial information. So the question is can we cater to all of these groups and do we want to? It would be easier to agree on compromises if these fundamental questions could be answered.
