Collaboration has got off to a good start, with the first chosen article, Arrow Dynamics, improving enough to reach B-class.
The following articles reached GA-class or B-class quality during January:

Article Improvement Drive
This month's Article Improvement Drive: Roller coaster
Why not start at the top?! The main article is already at B class and, with a little help, isn't too far away from GA class. Please see the collaboration page for further information.
Any suggestions for March's Article Improvement Drive can be brought up on the talk page, so if there's a particular article you feel could benefit from more input then feel free to suggest it.
