Honestly, I am not sure that anything in the direction of review/stable release etc. should be done, at least as long as the average article quality continues to rise, which I think it does.
I completely agree with Alex here. The openness and accesability of Wikpedia are both the causes of its success and its vulnerability. If reviewing didn't work for Nupedia, why do you think it will work now? How do you expect to be able to review 30.000+ articles?
What bothers me is that this again a small extension that makes the interface and the software a little more complex. I will repeat ad nauseam that everything about Wikipedia should be kept as simple as possible. Wikpedia has already strayed far too far from the path of WikiWiki.
