Regardless of where this behavior happens, a wiki, the Arch wiki, any other Knowledge Base type documentation platform, duplicating information is rarely ever the correct approach. Self-contained articles are nice and helpful in theory but the maintenance effort is multiplied by number of articles when you have to change the information on every page it is put (if you can even track that) instead of just changing the page that is **referenced** everywhere once.
