They say English Wikipedia is going to have a "peer review" sort of thing?

Like you edits will be filtered by some "senior editor" guys. What's your opinion?
I say this is not necessary, because the Wiki is already doing quite a great job all by users themselves now. The wikipedia bureaucratic system has proven themselves horrible and stupid. They contribute nothing to the knowledge, only serves to complex things.

I can understand where they're coming from. Even though Wikipedia has a lot of information and can be useful, not everything one the site is accurate. In fact, a former co-worker of mine has a daughter who is in high school. When she had a research paper to write, the teacher advised them not to use Wikipedia exactly for that reason. If the senior editors know their categories (I imagine they'll be in charge of various interests) and weed out all the bad information, then I have no problem with them.
