"This may go against common sense \u2013 most people are used to seeing web pages as completed, static works that don't change (and probably don't need to change). When writing a page, you may have the urge to make sure the article is finished and polished before you post it. You need to fight that urge! It's better to have a rough, unfinished article that can be refined and revised instead of no article at all. And ultimately, this process will attain perfection, because everyone is working together towards a common goal. That goal is just a lot further off than it might seem."@en .

It's better to have a rough, unfinished article that can be refined and revised instead of no article at all. The key to the lack of perfection is the opportunity for collaboration. You may only post a rough, vague skeleton of an article (or even less, and just a stub ), but that's okay, because other archivists can pitch in and add their own ideas. It's like the old clich\u00E9 goes \u2013 two heads are better than one. And ultimately, this process will attain perfection, because everyone is working together towards a common goal.
