This expands on [this post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/defining-trust-levels/3025/14) from two years ago.

So here is what I propose:  
In addition to trust levels, discourse can support Content Quality Levels.

(Note: I did not make this graph, it was copied from the linked post)

Trust levels are already implemented, on the Y-axis.  
People who consistently post quality content can ascend on the X-axis.

What would this do?  
A new tab can be added (“Featured” or “Curated”) which can be calculated by likes, date (more recent is better; maybe along a curve like y=sqrt(-(x-5)) or something similar), and manual influence by curators.

CQLs can be calculated by maybe (# of likes \* avg. CQL of likers).  
This can be accompanied by a badge (quality contributor, curator, quality curator) and increased flag priority/like limit.

This would be especially powerful when combined with something like [this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/curated-home-plugin/23474).

Additionally, a high CQL can be a factor in automatic promotion to TL4.
