If we mark articles as bad or stub, we could keep them
somewhat hidden
from the public.
Ah, the insidious plausibility of the worst ideas!
The default must be that we keep the stubs in view, unless people somehow opt otherwise. How else are we going to get the encyclopedia written? I thought there was anyway consensus that the content took priority over all else, including impressing people with excessively tidy minds.

Fine, make "stub-hiding" an optional feature. Users who want to conceal stubs or other sub-standard articles can set a "user preferences" option to do so.
And let's tell magazines that review our project to judge us by our "good" articles, once Magnus's feature has had a chance to get going.
