BeBoldInUpdatingPages

Wikis don't don't work if people aren't '''bold'''.  You've got to get out there and make those changes, correct that grammar, add those facts, make that language precise, etc., etc.  It's OK.  It's what everyone expects.  So you should never ask, "WhyArentThesePagesCopyedited?"  Amazingly, it all works out.  It does require some amount of politeness, but it works.  You'll see.

OK, you folks '''still''' don't understand, so let me make this clear: if someone writes an inferior or merely humorous article or article stub, or outright PatentNonsense, don't worry about their feelings.  Correct it, add to it, and if it's a total waste of time, outright replace it with BrilliantProse (and relegate the deletions to BadJokesAndOtherDeletedNonsense).  That's the nature of a WikiWiki, and long live WikiPedia!

So I might have convinced you to be bold in updating pages, but now you want know: HowDoesOneEditaPage?
