The review board reviews, they would not edit except as individuals. A review
may reject an article but have a list of items that would have to be addressed
before the article could be put up for review again. The quality of the process
depends on the mix of people involved and their level of dedication. So yes,
results may vary. But that is no different than dead-tree encyclopedias.
