This is, of course, an even better idea. The only quibble I have is  
that I dislike the use of "the Wikipedia community," which seems to  
me to go too far in the other direction in establishing a split  
between reader and editor.

Perhaps "It has come to our attention that this article may not be as  
good as we'd like it to be. [click here] to see more specific  
details..." and so on.
