It's the Market Wide Position Limit (MWPL) and not Wide position Limit. Market Wide Position Limit is the maximum limit of Open Interest for securities in F&O segment . Open Interest in a security can not go beyond this level.
This limit is set up by the exchange and differs from security to security.

As a survillence process, brokers won't allow a client to take fresh position in F&O securities if Open Interest for the particular security exceeds 90% or 95% of MWPL.
