That's a very good idea.

A big green button "validate" at the end of the displayed wikitext content of 
the page may fit the need. It would open a confirmation popup with an 
explanation message the first k times the user click on it in order to make 
sure new contributors use it well (with k something like 3 or 5).

What do you think about it? I'll have some free time in a few weeks to 
implement a such thing directly into the ProofreadPage extension.
