If changes have to be approved, I'm not sure what the controversy is, only positive improvements will be approved. People already on match ask their friends to write their profile for them. The web 1.0 online dating experience doesn't suck just because of the poorly written profiles but for oh-so-many other reasons, mostly because almost all dating sites uses the "spam as a way to woo" method. And who dreams of finding a significant other in a pile of spam?

The reason this story caught my eye was because so many people who are genuinely interesting can't write a profile to save their life...and either don't realize it or have the courage to ask for help from a friend. It's sort of like how an article on this blog might have mistakes, but short of contacting Nick I can't do much about it. Enabling a profile-oriented site with wiki features enables us all to look a little better and offers a much gentler way of getting people to improve their image.
Wikipedia allows the community to improve the quality of articles. Offering this for dating enables people to present themselves better.
The same strategy could be applied to resumes--we all need to put a better face forward, and this is as innovative a way as any.

I'm not single, but when I was I tried a few sites...and I must say it's a pretty exciting space for innovation and social media.

Fact: Let’s face it. If you’re working full time, how many opportunities do you have to suddenly meet a potential blind date uncensored partner? The majority of married couples will tell you: They did not meet at a club or in college. Someone introduced them.

No matter how busy a person can be it is important to have a space for love on his or her schedule, recently online dating sites had been pretty popular.
