It was also decided long ago that plot summaries can and should be quite detailed. This has the benefit of making it unnecessary to spell out so much plot detail on character pages, some of which have gotten quite long.

And this comment doesn't quite fit reality: "The Wiki's strength rather lies in spreading all that information to the in-universe pages." When it comes to editors on the wiki, yeah, maybe that's true, but the very large majority of visitors to the wiki never edit anything and really only mostly care about the current and previous seasons of Doctor Who. Plot summaries are just as important as any other part of the wiki.
