A stable article is an article which has graduated from the community-editing process.
Most articles in the SABR Encyclopedia begin life as community-edited articles. Any SABR member can make incremental or substantial changes, additions, or other improvements to these articles. The ultimate goal of the article-development process is to provide a quality summary of the topic, which goes through an editorial and peer-review process, and can be labeled as being "stable." To initiate this process, a contributor takes responsibility for the article, and, either building on what may be present already, or starting afresh, moves the process along through the review process. Once an article is approved as being "stable," editing on an article is disabled. Questions and proposed changes to the article should be directed to the indicated author.
