Its a great idea but the thing is to be near automatic as possible this is because making it manual makes it rather hard/harsh ( this is more easy to understand by users who use the "patrol edits" function ).
So for example wikia adds a link on each paragraph for some sort of internal database gets updated, then we add some templates where we break the page in maybe 6 cells each cell basically has its own paragraph so each cell will have their own links for this trust system aside from normal links what we finish is with a clog view of many "trust/distrust links", then a way to work it around is to assign some users to have the function but that would be giving a lot of work to just a small circle of users, which of course are trusted, but as i stated information changes constantly and keeping updated is hard. So this ends on JaeSharp email comments its a huge development task. Another idea is that we jump on the next level and go after pages but then we have already the "page rating" we have "talk pages" we have "report a problem". Like i see it, this word/trust add-on/feature/option for dynamical content wikis is more like a minor tool that would only aid to spot sutler vandals or very minor changes but not as an actual tool for every body.
