As for the Wiki, I assume by the smilie that you are joking since those tend to be rarely used except for a small number of areas.
Maybe they should be able to go back and undo a 'helpful' vote. On StackExchange one can go back and undo an upvote (or a downvote).
Perhaps revamping the search feature to improve it should be a priority, rather than a ranking system?
