There is a reason why there is no dislike or -1 button. This only lead to mobbing of "most disliked persons", and that possible useful discussion about tags to be hidden away in yet another discussion forum.
I think the -1 button works well on help.osm.org and doesn't, as far as I can see, lead to mobbing of disliked persons.
A -1 button would allow us to easily identify problem cases; it is machine readable, in contrast to a textual comment.
Maybe removing the private message function in osm.org (like wikipedia) and replacing it with a forum would be enough. This has several advantages, such as a possibility to spot predatory behavior on new comers.
I really want to be able to criticize a changeset, not a person. I wouldn't want a wikipedia style personal page where there are tons of messages like "in changeset 12345, you did this and that", and nobody who looks at the changeset sees that message.
