I would oppose this idea, as difficulty should be decided by oneself, so you and me will have different perceptions. Moreover, if you only let registered users to have votes, you left out the unregistered. Is it democratic anymore?

Let me tell you, difficulty is a hard aspect to reach consensus on and you should know this aspect has sparked a lot of conflicts. I don't want to let the wiki to be divided. Therefore, option 5 is not a good idea. Why option 4 is the worst? Having the difficulty mentioned in sections under "Difficulty" is much better than give a subjective idea of the difficulty of the level.

Also a democratic wiki should involve the public, which means everyone's opinions. This means you should also include unregistered and registered users. I just can't see the point why unregistered users can't vote on the difficulty. Wouldn't it scare people away??
