I've been wondering how we could use something similar, but for what we do; as merely porting it as-is wouldn't work, thanks to the fact that their system is perfectly tailored towards encyclopedic content; whereas what we do is quite different.
I and Geth know the extension that would give us the tech to do it, it's more how we would actually judge it, because we have to compare and contrast the original explanation of the trope/work/creator; along with how much troping/example content a page has, if that makes sense.
I think this is something where we need to collaboratively figure out and write out what would work within this context.
I know we have bigger problems, especially with our large database and what it contains inside it, but it'd be a step towards quality control.
Two things:
One, sent RocketMaster a message to chill and discuss changes before doing them.
As for this idea, here's the extension LK brought up:

It looks technically easy to implement and should be no security concern, and I can bot any large scale changes needed to implement this if required.
