Ok... substantive change?
Discount changes that only shift text around, fix grammar, add cats and 
so on.
Or maybe any article where the sole sources have been added by a single 
editor.
Sounds a bit WP:OWNish doesn't it?

What about new page patrollers tagging and categorising? Do they count
as editors? It takes less than 90 minutes for a new article to get its
first edits from other people. You would need to work out where to
draw the line, which is never easy.
