Due to a suggestion (forgot from whom, though...) the Tasks extension can now automatically create a task for a newly created article. This can be configured separately for article creations by logged-in users and anons (should we allow that again).
Major advantages of this mechanism over the "new pages patrol" are * tasks are not forgotten, even if noone checked the page for days or month * tasks can be closed by logged-in users, so patrols can focus on unchecked (new) articles
