I'll add that traditional community tools help a small group of highly
talented people deal with a massive flow of changes. For written,
encyclopedia articles, that is probably warranted.   For images, we should
consider harnessing our massive army of readers.  Many large websites (with
non-volunteer moderators) offload the penultimate step of moderation to
human readers, via flagging or "report abuse" features. We have an army of
readers who would be interested in helping at a lower level-of-effort--are
there any concerns with bringing them in?
