I am not quite sure I follow.
Those who like would have to go to diffs ?
which would leave the button to more engaged editors?
I personally find the like button on Facebook the dumbest idea ever - it
means you are too stupid or too lazy to think up anything and just go around
clicking
Or, Rui, perhaps you have plenty of original thoughts and are a very
intelligent person and you post all of your original thoughts, but it seems

disagreement

Hmm, it'd be a neat extension for Commons. I don't think like or +1

have to go to diffs, which would leave the button to more engaged
editors and thus almost strictly internal community issue. Could be

I don't understand why we need a Like button at all; it's open to personal
interpretation and therefore can be in contravention of many policies,
