Rewrite/Copy-edit for Brevity, Clarity
Ludwigs suggested the FAQ might need to be brought in line with recent changes to NPOV. I wanted to just do a non-policy clean-up first to get a better idea of what we were dealing with. I generally just shortened phrases and clarified the language to be more direct. I left ASF and Pseudoscience alone, since they are more touchy at the moment. QG made the comment that the FAQ had been "weakened", but I think that is a misreading of the change. I'm curious if there are some more specific comments or other observations.
