That's an pretry glass-half-full perspective. I would counter with this: Wikipedia = stable, but mostly because a cabal of senior editors is firmly in charge.

For all practical purposes, "anyone" can't edit Wikipedia anymore; try it, your edits will be reverted by somebody citing WP:WTFBBQ. It keeps trolling down, but at the cost of enforcing the party line. Reddit = when it isn't trolls and miscreants, it's the same unfunny jokes upvoted ad nauseum HN = good, but mostly because we're a self-selecting subset of the general population and there are legitimate grounds for banning any "off-topic" speech. This approach doesn't scale to the wider world.
