I've looked at the identifier list a couple of times with an eye towards helping with the curation, but I could never make heads nor tails of what the criteria were, whether there was consensus about the criteria, why some perfectly acceptably identifiers were being vehemently argued against and one what grounds, etc. The "community" driving this process on those wiki pages seems to be just a handful of vocal and opinionated people. Is that going to generate good results?
