[WikiEN-l] Article size consistency 32k

Fri May 20 19:34:45 UTC 2005

I notice that lately articles on the Featured article Candidates are
often longer, sometimes almost twice, than the recommended size of 32k
and nobody complains anymore about it. Personally, I do not object to
articles that have a size <64k but I do have a problem with the
inconsistent enforcement of standards for size that are now used. 
For example, some contributors oppose to an article about [[Germany]]
larger than 32k. A comparable article like the [[United States]] has a
size of 61k.
I request consistent enforcement of this recommendation or a more
lenient recommendation e.g. <64k.
