To reach 100,000 FAs or GAs - at which point we could in fact look Britannica in the eye on quality - will take a parallel process that isn't turned into stupid amounts of effort for little or no reward.
Wikipedia is not popual due to it's FAs and GAs. It's popular becuase of it's good enough articles.
Since when was did being "popular" become a goal of the project?
(I used scare quotes around popular because I don't think I've ever seen data that suggests that we're the most popular resource in any way other than web traffic. ... and if you think that webtraffic is a good metric, pause for a moment and consider that MySpace whoops our ass in that regard.)
