But new page patrollers have had a consensus for a while (this was
previously discussed on the list) that this was never a major burden.
At any given time, 2-3 patrollers could deal with the stuff that came
in. Often, when I did new page patrol, I was actually a bit bored by
the slow rate at which crap articles I could delete came in at. This
seems like a solution in search of a problem, if that's the supposed
problem it's addressing.
