Before I saw this post, I was about to counter-propose
just that: a simple
delay-to-live timer. Something similar could apply to page creation.
Perhaps the time-to-publish could be a dynamic figure based on the age
of the editor making the change (anons have age 0, old editors go live
faster), the frequency of changes of the page (more frequently edited
pages go live faster) and the frequency of page views (less frequently
viewed pages go live faster).
The idea being that an anon editing a rarely-edited page should go
live slower, to give other editors a chance to see the edit. Maybe 24
hours or more...
