Hackernews literally operates on this premise as well. Flagging is a very common feature. Crowdsourcing this is actually a very effective tactic. Also, you'd be surprised how smart kids are if you give them the chance, have the right UI, etc. I'm actually surprised the HN community seems to look down on crowdsourcing these efforts, kinda humorous.
