Perhaps the ratings system should only let readers remove a template, then send them a welcome message (to an IP#, no less) that transcludes the template of their expertise, and encourages them to follow the links in it, and by those actions encourage them to ensure that their rating is even more true. To know and enjoy what you are good at is three blessings, because two of them are the same.
