I am completely disconnected from Wikipedia - I do use MediaWiki for
small projects. However, wasn't there FlaggedRevs deployed at Wikipedia
for some time already? If so, how can Google (which should index pages
as anonymous), recieves vandalized pages instead of approved revisions?
Only registered users should see vandalism by default.
Not all pages have flaggedrevs enabled.
For the thread problem, I don't think there's much to do here. If google
wants to spider us faster, or use the commercial RC feed, so be it.
They are catching fast vandalism, so they should catch the corrections
fast, too.
