Wikipedia articles, improve them (outside the bounds of Wikipedia's

FA status, and then replace them.>>
--------------------
If you mean replace them *outside* the project isn't that something that
Veropedia is supposed to be doing?
If you mean replace them back *in* the project, I seem to recall quite
vividly a multi-year battle was started over a certain editor (you know who you
are) doing exactly that. Taking a very large article, working it over in
her own user-space, and then slapping it back in place. *Some* of the other
editors working that article didn't take too kindly to that approach.
The fiasco that came out of that, is one of the reasons I don't edit in
project as much as I once did. It's also *the* reason I no longer watch my
watchlist. I just edit and move on, without looking back.
