Counter-proposal: how about if we add the rep settings at the top of the Vote Summary page, instead of computing and adding them to each entry?  I'm imagining something like this:

> Reputation for up/down votes:  
> Q&A: Question +5/-2, Answer +10/-2  
> Sandbox: Article +0/-0  
> Meta: Question +0/-0, Answer +0/-0

One line per category, listing each votable[^1] post type allowed in that category and the rep levels.

This makes the values visible to everybody without adding a second number for each entry on the page.

Or if there's a better place to expose this information, let's do that.  People shouldn't have to guess what the rep changes mean, I agree.

[^1]: Whether a post can be voted on is a property of the post type.  For an example of non-votable posts, see the Descriptions category on the Proposals site.
