Questions
Who writes the articles?
The community. Anyone can sign up and write; Lab Directors review every article before it appears on the front page.
How are sources checked?
Writers add inline citations that link straight to the source. Reviewers get an automatic checklist (source count, inline citations, https, news-only sources), and articles without sources are marked Unsourced.
What happens if I edit a published article?
It leaves the front page until a Lab Director approves it again.
