Is it safe to change the whole article for SEO?

Hello,
So I would like to rewrite the whole article on my 2 pages and I was wondering if it won't affect negatively on their ranking in google. Of course, articles will be on the same subject and have similar keywords (probably would like to add some more).

If You can Change or Re-Write the article then that article will be fresh / new, so need to worry about Rankings, If some time the rankings will drop but within few days automatically shows the better rankings in SERP

Just make it as a unique and Copyscape passed one.Don't do over stuff at a time..Then do it in drip feed manner.

This isn't entirely true. Adding a new article does not mean you'll drop and then rank better.

Adding a new article means your site will be differently optimized (for the article specifically) therefor your rankings may drop or go higher, depending on whether the quality of the article/optimization is better or worse than the previous one.

Exactly. If you're just spinning words to say the same thing in substance though, it might not help.
But if you think you can genuinely improve your previous article, that's probably a good idea. Just make sure you optimize everything well on the way.

It is ok. If new article will be better, u will be have more good positions in search.
Change content of page is natural.

Yup, Better article then a existing one is good for Site. But don't do all at same time.
