Hi George, I'm trying to avoid the modified text being made public before it adheres to an adequate qualitative standard as determined by Numenta designates. I'm not familiar with the editing procedure of Wikipedia (this will be my first contribution) - but I'm assuming there must be some attempt to have submitted text be "authenticated" by the domain experts (those that are being written about or accepted authorities on the topic)? I'm not sure...
