Assertion:
Wikipedia should adopt an inclusionist philosophy when it comes to accepting new articles

Cruxes...
The top point in support right now is, "If the editorial staff gets too strict, it goes against the open egalitarian nature that made Wikipedia so strong"
The top counterargument is, "Wikipedia search and disambiguation is reaching a limit. If we have too many articles with similar content, you won't be able to sift through the official and unofficial versions."
To view all the other arguments on both sides, and delve into the responses to them, just scroll down!

Wikipedia is not paper. There is enough space to include all the articles, so why not.

If an article contains facts, no matter how minute or trivial, it should be considered part of the human knowledge base, so it deserves a place in the Wikipedia database.

By that rationale, every human being living or dead deserves their own Wikipedia article. Their existence is part of the human knowledge base too.
