Hello. I want to start by thanking you for your hard work on the Wiki. Your efforts on correcting wrong articles and filling missing information are very much appreciated.

About the length of paragraphs, don't think that a short paragraph means lack of information. There is no obligation to comprise an entire chapter in a single paragraph, you can use as many as you need. The recommendation to split the information into short paragraphs is just for style reasons, to make the reading lighter and more comfortable.

There is not an exact number of lines that a paragraph should have, but in the case of websites it is recomended to be generally short, since many lines look like a wall of text and that's tiresome just to see, even before reading. After all, line breaks mark pauses in the reading, and a continous text looks like talking without breaks.

I would suggest to try to use paragraphs around 4-8 lines long. The paragraph ends when you think there is enough information to start in a new line; though if you have one of 10 lines or more then probably it can be perfectly splitted.

To know when a paragraph should end, I just pay attention to the flow of the narrative. At the moment that I find a pause in the reading longer than a normal period, then that indicates me that I can apply a line break and continue in another paragraph; though the decision to do it or not depends if the resulting paragraph will be too short or too long, so just use your own common sense to determine that.
