It might have a ranking system, but I see it as less-than the Admin-Editors system. Admins are simply regular editors with some extra privledges. People with more badges simply do more. Doesn't mean that they do more quality edits, just that they do more edits.

Just like the Xbox achievements, people will whore it because they think they are cool with a higher number when in reality...nobody cares.
