We could as easily set up new pages to have a half-hour holding
period; the problem is how to separate the need to remove the truly
nasty material immediately. A delay period inevitably requires
checking things twice.

If this is truly the root of all urgency we
should turn on flaggedrevs.
Try and keep up with marking new pages as patrolled for say half an hour.
In the beginning we would want Google to index
only an article's last
stable version (if one exists).
After a certain grace period (to keep known-good content from
vanishing), we can begin instructing Google to stop indexing articles
which have no flagged rev and to de-index existing unflagged revs.
There is no way to do this.
Some users like to nuke every
{{third-world-topic-stub}} from
geostationary orbit because it is like a video game to them. Faster
pussycat, kill, kill, and let no mayfly die of natural causes.
Not so much. Since it is generally fairly easy to argue for the
significance of many unwritten third world articles.
Perhaps some of this energy can be channeled
toward other tasks.
Experience suggests not.
