I don't like that phrasing. "And the project's

maybe.

Err in that case the cynical side of me would rather you

From the articles I've worked on, all too often the
people
are taking the YOUR-objective approach and treating the
article as if it's theirs and any changes are a challenge
to THEIR objective, which they now view as the article's
objective. That makes it harder for the people trying to
make the content better, and it certainly interferes with
policy like NPOV, WP:V, and WP:CITE when you have people
clinging onto what they feel is their hard,
well-intentioned (i.e., "good") work instead of what's best
for the article.
