A new variant on an old idea follows.
I propose a new variant on protection of pages, a sort of "deferred
edits" solution, to be used on high-traffic vandalism targets a la
George W Bush and other presidential candidates.
Someone vandalizes GWB. Someone reverts the vandalism, say, sixty
seconds to three or four minutes later. (Hey, the wiki is danged slow
sometime.) The vandalism is gone. In those sixty seconds, however,
someone may have viewed the page.
My solution would be a feature that would defer any edits for a short
period of time, say, five minutes. If the revision remains unchanged
(unedited, unreverted, un-rolledback) for those five minutes, it
becomes the currently displayed 'article'. This should provide an
adequate window during which such vandalism can be reverted, without
it ever being displayed.

This would be a fantastic function. But the are dreams :(
My dream is that I can block a ipadress but still give access to the
wiki for registered users of that ipadres.
