How about some kind of self-moderating (Slashdot style) directory, whereby submission to the directory was immediate and does not require an editor.

Users of the directory can then moderate entries - promoting the score of good entries and demoting bad ones.

Like Slashdot, there would be no overall deletion (free speech and all that), only the possibility that an entry was moderated down into oblivion and only viewable by users browsing the directory at that level.

Obviously loads of issues - but, with care and thoughtful development could this be made to work?

I'd be able to give some time (and resources) to this if anybody thinks it could be made to work...
