Oh Wikipedia, pease never change.
Wikipedia can be weird sometimes. I’m trying to get an article approved and every time I re-submit it gets denied for different reasons.
I’ve never had to get a new article approved. I just write it. Is it about something very controversial?
Uh, what? As far I can tell every new draft needs to be approved before switching to the main page.
This is not standard practice. An article that is controversial or one that has been vandalised a lot may put in place such a policy. But the vast majority of articles on (English) Wikipedia can be freely edited.
