Regarding the issue of long-untouched pages:
1) are there some statistics, in mediawiki, that allow a process to check how many times a page has been accessed? I can of course add a new hook and a db table, but it may not work due to caching, and as this would run for every hit, I don't want to increase load.
2) The best way to add this reconsideration of long-unchanged pages is to implement it as a batch process, i.e., not run from apache. This would mean that the job can be run as a cron job, or as a daemon, or something like that, in the background, at low enough rate not to cause trouble. Does this approach sound satisfactory to you?
Oh, and what is en.labs?

Well, en.labs would be best, as it is a site for testing :D But yes, English Wikibooks is a good candidate once we have explored the issue of long-untouched pages (ie the trust should be recalculated, I think)

Yes, I fully agree. We should start on a small project where people are interested. We can consider the bigger wikis later, once we are confident that we like it and it works the way we want. I was citing Enwiki just to discuss potential performance. Ian and I can help with advice etc anyone who wants to try this out. Luca

even on the English Wikipedia (5 edits / second at most?) a single CPU would suffice
But why start so large? Pick a smaller test wiki first like, say, en.wikibooks? We can throw that into the queue of things we want installed down at WB.
