Just a thought:
At the moment, some articles have disclaimer notices added (in addition
to the general disclaimer covering the whole encyclopedia, of course).
The new MediaWiki namespace has recently improved things by allowing the
text of article disclaimer notices to be standardised and updates
automated.
The process of adding these per-article notices could be made still
easier when the name-value pair infrastructure is added by allowing the
addition of _automatic_ disclaimer messages based on article category
tags. These texts could be sysop-editable, in just the same way as the
MediaWiki tags (or indeed might be implemented as MediaWiki tags).
