Well at least so far, it seems that there have been two

1. fewer crappy pages created
2. the ones that are create are as easy to identify as ever, since some
of the anons are converting into 'anonymous redshirts' (i.e. users with
no userpage).
You forgot:
3. more crappy edits to existing articles (anecdotally).
I agree we should collect more data, but we can't forget collecting data
on #3, or else it will be pretty useless.
