I think that this would be a good idea for the bigger tutorials, but smaller 
howto's are almost always accurate.

Plus, we always like the feedback about what worked for some and didn't for 
others, then we can update them with their comments. This then shows we are 
constantly reviewing our material.

Lastly, I feel that our staff are more than capable of editing their own 
articles/howto's, to check for accuracy. Remember we have people like Hoyt 
Duff and who has written several books and the rest of our staff are very 
accomplished. 

I don't mean to sound harse here, sorry:-)

Gavin.
