That isn't going to happen, simply because we don't have enough people interested in, or even capable of, that kind of writing. It's a wiki and it's good at collaborative work, which means that a few people write about what they know and the rest fact-check it and pick it into a reasonable format. Well over 99% of our articles will never be of featured or even "good" article standard, but that says more about our unrealistically high standards than it does about the quality of the encyclopedia. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
