Actually, it's a lot better now then it was.  That preview screen is a
life-saver.  Preventing accidentally doing something silly.

So, kudos to you guys for implementing that .. and requiring the reason for
editing.  Both are great.

The deny feature has an "alert" box .. perhaps the "reset" and the "approve"
options should too?

One feature that would be good to have is locking of some sort, so that two
people cannot be editing the same article at the same time.  Always been a
problem.

Anyway .. more off me in a bit
