My assessment is that this (standards) is half the issue - the more
conspicuous half.  How to get adequate articles written in areas where WP
collectively has little expertise is the other major question; this is not
surely just a matter of applying standards, but requires people either to
out on a limb, or gain access to research materials such as an academic
library offers.

Anyway, there are the two limiting shortages: high-quality editors, and
editors in less common areas.
