When a non-logged in user creates a new article stick "warning, this isn't really part of Wikipedia" on the top of it. Then, when a logged in user edits it, take the warning off. If no logged in user edits it within X days, delete it.
I would strongly urge us *not* to make the mistake of assuming that "edited by a logged-in user" equals "approved by a logged-in user". We should *not* be forcing people to take responsibility for whole articles if they simply fix a typo, add a category, or tweak an interwiki link. Bad, bad idea.
You could always add a checkbox for this (though I would think adding a category or tweaking an interwiki link would suggest that one does not think an article is suitable for deletion).
