Better Tweet from Jimmy in that thread: "That isn't how blockchain works. That suggestion - to force people to strongly identify and pay for the privilege of editing Wikipedia - is a bad idea independently. And [it] would be easy and cheap to implement without blockchain."

Putting the digital side onto a blockchain doesn't help if you can fake the data you're putting in. Garbage in, garbage out.
