enWP enters its second decade. BLP seems to be the most pressing (I calculate 200 biographies of living people per admin, so really policing those could become a huge drain on admin time, as it arguably is already).
And about 10 *completely unsourced* BLPs per admin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Messedrocker/Unreferenced_BLPs
... plus another 8 or so poorly sourced BLPs per admin, for good measure.
Just a general reminder that if everyone chipped in and took care of 10 or 15 of these, we could clear the backlog, and then perhaps be able to breathe a bit easier and have a better discussion focussed on the best long-term policy. Obviously, it's not just admins who can help out; a lot of these articles just need general cleanup.
