Seconded. There's lots of really good articles, but the actual FAC
process is a *stupid* amount of work to *expect* anyone to go through
in my direct experience. I don't see how it can scale as Raul expects
it to.

(This may be an interesting side-effect of the article rating feature:
seeing what articles are actually rated highly by the readers and
seeing if they can get just that little bit of polish.)
