Edit: Awards for the best responses + reviews of answers HERE.
I think this is a really important question and I’m eager to see answers. I’m willing to put up $100 of my personal money as a prize for what I think is the best answer and another $50 for what I think is the best summary of multiple answers. (I’m willing to combine these of the best answer includes summary of other answers.)
This isn’t a proper impact certificate, but if it were, I might be awarding this prize at 5% or less of the true value of the impact. So in offering $100, I’m saying the real impact could be worth like $2000 or more in my mind if it’s a really good answer.
Assuming Eli is okay with this, I’ll evaluate in two weeks, ending November 13 at 12:00 AM, and pledge to award within three weeks (for each day I’m late, I’ll increase the prize amounts by 5% compounding).
A thing I would be interested in here is also people mentioning how they gained their ability to assess papers, e.g. “I can do this because I have a statistics degree” or “I can do this because of my domain expertise” and further bonus points on listing resources people could use to enhance their ability to assess research.

This sounds cool to me!
