Broad in its coverage

[edit]
(a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic
I have concerns about this criteria. Particularly, I'm having trouble identifying what warrants this page (i.e., what makes it worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia). I'm not saying it shouldn't be, I'm rather asking what types of precedents this set. I think there should be a section like "Impact" discussing the precedents, any controversy, discussion, etc., of the final decision. Is it possible to create a section like that? I think this would go a long way to making a fuller article.
There isn't really enough information for that, but the precedent is fairly clearly outlined in the article; the case established that the precedent set in Cream Holdings Ltd v Banerjee and the Liverpool Post and Echo Ltd should not be applied to defamation cases. This precedent has been discussed in multiple sources, and indeed the amount of journal and other academic coverage it got indicates the case's importance.
