Feel free to help copy articles from Stars! FAQ. The process I'm using (for almost all articles) is:
 
#highlight and copy text of article from webpage
 
#paste into editor(I'm using [http://www.textpad.com TextPad])
 
#replace all newlines "\n" with a double newline "\n\n"
 
#replace all quadruple newlines "\n\n\n\n" with triple newlines "\n\n\n"
 
#check for areas where "ascii formatting" is used,fix and wrap with <pre></pre> tags
 
#if I'm feeling thorough, rebuild any tables using wiki-markup
 
#add any relevant [[Special:categories|category tags]]
 
#paste into article editor
 
#preview(and edit more)
 
#save
 
  
Wiki-markup ignores single newlines, hence the replacements
