User:XtraJovial/Essays/Do not make articles long for the sake of them being long

You should not lengthen articles for the sake of lengthening them. Length should be merely viewed as a side effect. You should instead focus on... literally anything else. If you're focused on making sure your additions to articles are well-written, comprehensive, well-sourced, and accessible, the article may become longer naturally. If you focus on length and length alone, you'll end up with an article that's bloated beyond belief.
