That's an example of where the revision box should be placed. The
new version is being currently tested internally.

By default, FlaggedRevs places the box after the title, in the article
body. I managed to move it using JS with DOM, but this is far from
satisfactory for a couple of reasons: non-esssential info before the
article (bad for SEO, because search engines usually ignore JS), and,
well, it's just a JS hack, after all.

For the moment I could live with it (and hopefully users), but it
happens FlaggedRevs forces a hardcoded markup based on a table
and some explicit format (with the style attribute). You can see it in
FlaggedRevsXML.php, function prettyRatingBox.
