Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, has hundreds of thousands of articles. However, not all of these articles are exceptional pieces of work. In fact, only 0.1% of the articles on Wikipedia are these exceptional pieces of work. That can pose a problem though; people can think that the bulk of Wikipedia is composed of garbage and good old fashioned fancruft. However, that's far from the truth! There are plenty of good (not great) articles on Wikipedia, but they don't have any formal recognition. That is why I introduce to you, Standard Articles!
