Once upon a time, a busy programmer hacked a little extension called "Tasks". It was supposed to help semi-automate recurring tasks, from deletion requests to anon page creation petitions. It can automatically generate a page for each task in a special namespace where said task can be discussed. Tasks can be listed by type (and by page category, if enabled), and are shown in the page header or sidebar, depending on the type.
I'll be honest -- it didn't look like it would help with this stuff at all. For instance, it didn't handle with any of the above things that were mentioned.
All it was was yet another set of manually-maintained pages that would be hard to deal with.
