I don't know what your talking about, but if you explain it more clearly, and in a more polite tone, I may be of some assistance.

I totally agree with the need for this. It's not about replacing human judgment, it's about giving tools to improve human judgment. For any proposal to work though, I think we need a way of indicating that an edit was "bad" in some sense. In eBay parlance, it would be like negative feedback. But at least with that, you could start to count the number of good/bad edits for a user. It would be incredibly handy to know that a given user was +11,000 (56% good) (in other words, a very active but controversial user - probably a pain in the arse), as compared to +300 (99% good) - new, but doing a great job.
Any system can be gamed - you just have to make it not worth anyone's time. Google pagerank can be gamed, but it takes a lot of effort and is very difficult to do cheaply.

I also very much like this proposal. If nothing else it would clarify me for who I am, and give certain people alot less room to insult and stigmatise others based on tarbaby terms like "troll".
