Thanks for the comment. It was quite insightful. I don't have any prior moderation experience, so I plan on taking up the task myself initially to get a good grasp of the challenge…

So this is not a problem I've solved yet. But I think the solution would involve a mix of community voting and good sorting algorithms. But I'll only know the correct solution once…
