Here's my totally unscientific investigation into the quality of our work: twenty consecutive pages retrieved using the randompage link.

Third round (February 2008)
Summary: There may be a tendency away from fancruft and totally unsalvageable garbage. Writing style is a serious problem with many articles. Enyclopedic perspective is mostly lacking. The dysbalance between boxes and text is disturbing.

First round (20 March 2005) (late 2004)

 * Malachi York short biographical article about an "author of over 500 books dealing with subjects such as the origin of languages, religion, spirituality, ufology, new world order, freemasonry, black history, science, health, and the mind among many things". Topic of questionable notability, content probably biased, style needs work
 * Kusakabe short biographical article about a Japanese prince from the 7th century. Decent little article
 * HMS Berkeley Castle (K387) short article about a WW2 warship. Short but okay
 * Alcira stub about a city in Spain, from 1911 EB and almost unchanged. Probably outdated information, unencyclopedic style
 * Pkunk Not notable, fancruft.
 * The Scar, medium-sized article about a probably not-too-notable novelr. Mostly a plot summary. Could do with some formating and copyediting, probably bordering on fancruft. Cruftish tendencies, style needs work
 * Opcode short article about a technical term in computer programming. Language far too technical, definition very vague. Techspeak, low quality article
 * National Review (London) Fragmentary in every respect, insufficient definition. Non-article
 * Philistinism Short article about a social phenomenon. Vague in content. Lamentable style. Low quality article
 * Northern Ireland Long geographical article, complete and well written. Wikipedia near its best
 * Phyllis Schlafly biographical article about a U.S political activist, adequate amount of text,acceptable quality of writing, biased language in some parts. Quite acceptable
 * ZSC Lions Stub about an ice hockey team. needs alittle cleanup, otherwise fine. Decent stub
 * British Antarctic Territory short geographical article, style and facts seem okay, but half of the text is about postage stamps. Unbalanced content, otherwise okay
 * Unclassified game List of doubtful usefulness. Why does this have an article of its own? Useless list, non-article
 * Hypochloremia medical stub, almost sub-stub. Correct information and good formating. Decent stub
 * Leila Shahid stub about a contemporary politician. Content and formating okay. Decent stub
 * Raven (comics)/Temp Subpage (leftover from rewrite?) Lengthy fanbabble. Not notable, fancruft
 * Yasin Said Numan stub about a contemporary politician. Content and formating okay. Decent stub
 * Gales Point geographical stub, content and formating okay. Decent stub
 * Bikutsi stub about a musical genre from Cameroon. Content and formating okay. Decent stub
