following the discussions and layouts that we have had over the last weeks Frank Linnenschmidt has come up with the following approach for the integration of the text and icons for the FlaggedRevs. He has designed icons for the german approach, but those should be pretty much reusalbe for other settings as well:

- a page header with the 'approved' icon
I like it and the place where it is located at too.
However we need to keep in mind that the same corner is being used by some Wikipedias for displaying data:
Urgs. I always edit in classic skin, there you are save from a lot of this ;-) Well, there are two solutions, either display the new icons directly right of the lemma, display the new icons directly right of the buttons or discus the current situation with the people involved and change it, for example move the coordinates. Actually, I have no real idea what they are doing there so prominently.
if you would click on the icon, a box would unfold: http://www.baach.de/wpdesign/Main_Page_2.html
Well it is nice and concise but I have some questions:
How could it avoid hiding parts of the article content such as images and boxes which are placed below the title in the right corner by default in virtually every article? I don't want to encourage people moving things in articles around just for avoiding some potential visual problems (we already have problems with people that are abusing Wikipedia as a browser encyclopedia with lots of workarounds and whatnot in order to optimize articles for certain browsers in a certain resolution only).
May we could add a cross in the right upper corner wich gets you back to the originally state upon clicking?
