Right, I agree that that's a good idea. Just give me some details then.

Excellent
The project list is on A735581. Just pick a title from the list and write an article, or come up with a topic and I'll add it to the list. Either way, let me know what you're writing so I can keep track of who is doing what. There might be other people wanting to contribute.
The big thing to remember is that these article are supposed to be factual, not opinion. So if you decided to write about the magic bullet, you'd need to write down exactly what the theory is, point out what the flaws are in the theory, and only then say whether you think it's true or not.
Finally, when it comes to sorting out the layout and style, we've got 2 choices...
1) You can let me know when you've finished an article, and then I'll tart it up with GuideML and make it look pretty. The downside is that to the world at large the article will have my name on them. You'll get writing credits, but anyone who looks would see my name first.
2) You learn a bit about GuideML. It really isn't so hard. I'm no computer whizz and I can do it. Besides, as long as the articles are neat and easy to read, the Editors can add any fancy bits as they require.

Hey, you have a few facts wrong on the intro, but it looks pretty good.
