English, so we all know that duplicate content was a main crack down for Panda, despite it partly backfiring with scrapers out ranking original, etc.

But the other side we hear about is thin content. People saying that every page should have at least 400 or so words of unique content.
How true is this? Is it feasible? Is it fair? Is it relevant?

What about sites like: e.g.
A java game site - the only content is the java app to play a game.
Photo/image sites - the content is all in the images, perhaps their could be some accompanying text, but what if you have 1m+ images.
Flash site - some flash tool that people find useful, interactive map perhaps.
Business directory - like the yellow pages, they have web pages about businesses, but only contain the name, address and phone number.

And many more similar pages, that simply cannot or do not require much text. Are these pages/sites to suffer from Panda? Is there evidence of such sites being Pandalized?
