A "score" for an article could be developed from number of edits, number of users who have edited the article, and number of times a reader has looked at the page.
Number of times someone has looked at the page tells you the number of times anyone has had an opporunity to edit, number of edits and number of users who have edited shows how much the article has been worked over.

So, as others have proposed, I do think we eventually need some sort of tagging system, so people know whether a particular article is a well-worked-over draft, or an initial draft that has undergone little to no review.
