Curating the curators is a good idea. I suppose the reputation system is supposed to be doing that to a certain degree but it has no effect on whales unless other whales flag them. It would also be interesting to see some statistics on how well whales do on curating content that is upvoted by other users - and not the other way around. This may give an indication of how they compare at curating compared to other users without the influence of attention a whale vote generates through the immediate prominence it gives to a post.

I think back to the old video store where each employee has their stack of weekly picks put out. After a while I would find whose recommendations I valued more (typically because of shared tastes or interests) and more than likely watch (vote) on their picks.
