The NS article apparently talks in detail about "only editors with 30 edits in 30 days" and so forth. I said that wasn't set in stone at all

I believe I know the source of this: in [[de:Wikipedia:Gesichtete Versionen]], it still says what the initial proposal was, namely 30 days and 30 edits. This was all in all considered too low in the discussion there, but we couldn't really agree on a certain number. The crucial points to name here are essentially the following: i) users are promoted to editor status in an automatic way, ii) 30 days and 30 edits is not set in stone and iii) we will probably not tell what the magic number is once the feature go live, to make gaming more difficult.
Yes. I said "there will probably be a low hurdle, we haven't decided what yet." And I'm sure we'll get creative vandals who create an account to validate stuff and an account to vandalise stuff.
I also said we'd decided casual readers would see the stable version - I see from [[m:Wikiquality]] that this isn't set in stone either. Which I'll keep in mind :-)
