Some Standard Guidlines for civility and topic focus would be nice. But beyond that each thread functions better if the Original Poster specifies the terms of their match. If someone doesn't like those terms they should be able and encouraged to make another thread or note that their arguement isn't to the letter of their original post.

Maybe we could develop a consensus system to validate or invalidate points as they are made. Since Versus threads are largely conjecture, maybe we could use the polls to do that? Or use semi formal debate rules of some sort? One Point at a time, some procedure for rebuttals; that kind of thing.

I'm also in favor of using the Databooks even if we disregard the stats. The databooks themselves are canon material by Kishimoto. Allowing them to be left out means anyone could leave out any canon they don't like.
