Not only is the noise ratio low, this seems like a good lesson in "encyclopedias are not primary sources nor arbiters nor authorities on information." Yes, people use Wikipedia that way anyway. No, baking in an even lower trust system does not seem like it's actually a fix to any of Wikipedia's problems.
