I have the same opinion. Most of the improvements to Wikipedia that
have been ongoing, like requiring citations, improve the average quality
of articles. At any given second, though, the quality can always be
quite abysmal. A system like this one essentially smooths out the
presented version, so the average reader sees something more like the
average recent state of the article, rather than its instantaneous
state. That doesn't magically make articles good, but it reduces the
number of times people see really bad articles.
