Thanks for the note, Danny. I understand that it's important to think through
how both good-faith users and malicious users could end up using something like
this.

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/wikitech/494928 has some more
thinking on the topic.

You're absolutely right that there's a risk that a user could ignore someone
who is trying to help them. 

I think the community liaisons would be able to give you better and more use
cases; if you'd like to ask for the stories of people who have to see sexist,
homophobic, and transphobic language in onwiki discussions right now, you might
want to consult:
